Pinterest announced Tuesday that it will begin rolling out two-factor authentication to all of its users “over the next few weeks.”
Two-factor authentication protects users by enabling them to receive mobile text verification codes each time they log into the social network, or Pinners can opt to receive those codes via push notifications by downloading the Authy application from Twilio.
Pinners who wish to enable two-factor authentication can do so via the security section of their settings, and Pinterest said that once the feature is enabled via the web, it will also be enabled for users’ other devices.
Pinterest added that users can view all active sessions in their account settings and revoke any that are not familiar to them.
