With two-factor verification you can protect your access even better. When logging in, you must also enter a so-called two-factor token in addition to the password.
The token (usually a number) is created for you by an app, for example on your smartphone.
The two-factor authentication only supports access to the Swissmail.org website.
Preparation
To create a two-factor token, you need an application on your computer or smartphone that supports one-time passwords (according to RFC 6238).
Various such applications exist. The best known of these is Google Authenticator, which you can find in the Apple Store or Google PlayStore.
Install the Google Authenticator on your smartphone (or any equivalent app).
