How to activate two-step verification in Fortnite
- After registering your account you will have to go to your profile.
- Log in with your account and then you will have to go to the bottom where it says ” Two-Step Authentication “.
- Here you will see two options: activate the authentication application or email authentication.
- The best option is to use email. In case you did not activate your account, they will still send you an email to do so and you will have to follow their instructions before activating the two-step verification.
- If you already have it activated, then you will have to click on ” Activate authentication ” and an email will be sent to you with a code.
- The code in question must be entered when you log in with your Epic account on any device where you have not logged in for more than thirty days.
This method is considerably secure since if they figure out the password for your Epic account, they won’t be able to access it because they won’t have the code. Ideally, your email password should not be the same as the one you use at Epic Games.
How to improve security on my Fortnite account
It is very important that you take into account the tips that we will give you below, to improve the security of your Epic Games and Fortnite account.
When creating a password, try not to use your data, none of your data. Not your name, date of birth, address, telephone, etc. In case you decide to use any of your data, try combining it with something that has nothing to do with you.
As we mentioned a bit above, do not use the same password on your Epic account and email. Since in this way the verification in two steps would be useless. To make any password as secure as possible, we recommend that you use a combination of uppercase, lowercase, numbers and, if possible, signs. To avoid any kind of intrusion by brute force.
You should always have the latest version of Fortnite installed on your device. Also, never connect to the internet through public networks, since you would be exposing not only your Epic account but everything you have on your computer.
Maintaining the security of your accounts is your responsibility. In all, it is not so difficult to be sure. Always keep your antivirus updated and working. Also, do not enter your login details anywhere, always on official sites. Although it is also possible once you have activated it on consoles such as the PS4 to deactivate this security function
