0:03
enable two-factor authentication to your WordPress website. And there are many ways you can enable two-factor authentication in WordPress
0:12
And here I will use the WordFence, but you can use any of the plugins given below
0:19
So let's check how you can do that. Let me just show you how it works
0:23
So when I click on logout, it will show a screen like this
0:28
So here you have to put your username and password. And when I click on login, it will ask you to enter the two-factor authentication code
0:37
So let me just enter this code. And click on login. And as you can see, I am logged into my dashboard and this code will change every 10 to 15 seconds
0:50
So in this way, you can secure your website from hackers and you can easily do this in
0:56
WordPress for free. So let me just show you how you can do that
1:01
So go to your WordPress dashboard and here click on plugin and click on add new
1:07
Now here search for WordFence. And click on install now. Okay now click on activate
1:19

Click on agree and continue. Now you can click on no thanks
1:42
Now you have to click on the login security option. And here you will see two options like this
1:49
So you have to scan the QR code from your authenticator app
1:53
So let me just show you. So you can use either Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator
1:59
So it will ask you to scan the code like this. You have to click on scan the QR code and Google will send the authentication code in
2:09
this format. So let me just scan the QR code. Okay I have scanned the QR code now
2:18
And before proceeding, you have to click on the download backup option so that in case
2:24
if you don't have access to the authenticator app then you can use this backup code to log
2:29
into your website. So here click on download. And here you have to enter a authentication code to complete this process
2:38
So let me just enter the verification code. Now click on activate
2:47
Okay now the two-factor authentication is activated in this website. So let's check this if it is working properly or not
2:55
So here click on logout. Now when you click on username and password and click on login, it will ask you to enter
3:05
the two-factor authentication code. So let me just add the new authentication code
3:13
And click on login. And as you can see, the WordPress website is login with the two-factor authentication code
3:22
So in this way, you can enable two-factor authentication in your WordPress website and
