What's with the email/cellphone login?

Some might be wondering why you don't see the traditional login / registration page. The reason you don't is that with the current setup, you don't need to remember a password when you sign in. It will require you to enter your email / cellphone number again and send you a code.
Basically what a 2FA Authenticator app does. It's an extra layer of protection and it keeps your personal information safer and out of the wrong hands. For those that don't know 2FA stands for Two-Factor Authentication. https://authy.com/what-is-2fa/.

Great article that explains, basically in layman's terms, what 2FA means and why its better than the typical email and password login that you see, most websites are using today. Most websites give you this as an option, but with the rise and advances in Blackhat hackers and cybercriminals, one must always strive to be able to have the best security at one fingertip.
