Sign in, choose your name at the top right, then Your account. While two-factor is off, it leads the page. Anyone with your password could read the record and sign verdicts in your name.

Three steps sit under the warning. Scan a code with an authenticator app, enter the six digit code it shows, and from then on sign in with your password and a fresh code.

Choose Turn on two-factor. Scan the code that appears with your authenticator app, or type the key shown beside it. Enter the six digits it shows in Code and choose Verify and turn on. The panel then reads On.

From then on, signing in takes one more step. Sign out, and sign in again with your email and password: Enter your code asks for the six digit code your authenticator app shows for Sensolytica.

Type the code and choose Verify and sign in. Codes change every thirty seconds, so use the one showing now. If you change phones, turn two-factor off and pair the new one straight away.
