  2. Choose ‘2FA Lock.’
  3. Enter the code received in your registered email
  4. Click on LOCK

NOTE: When your file has been successfully locked, you will see a notification.

Files that are protected with 2FA will have a lock icon.

2FA in Group Space

In group storage, only the file owner can enable 2FA for it. They can select which members will have access to the file. Whenever the owner or members with file permission want to access the file, they must enter a code sent to their email.

 

If you are not the file owner, the 2FA Lock option will not be available.

To remove 2FA Lock, click on the Remove button, and enter the code received to confirm.
