Protect yourself and your account

Interesting fact: 97% of account hacks happen to those who don’t use extra protective measures. How does this happen? Hackers can easily guess simple passwords using special programs or steal complex ones through phishing or viruses on your device.

It’s very easy to protect yourself – enable two-factor authentication in the settings of your VK ID! This means that in addition to the password to log in to your account, you will need one more unique code, which can be received via SMS or push notification.

It’s important to remember that you need an up-to-date phone number to enable two-factor authentication. If you have previously logged into your account without a password (via QR code or SMS), when you enable two-factor authentication, the password will be active again in your personal account settings.
