? How to Set Up 2FA for Your Vala’s Email Account

To improve account security and protect our organization, all Vala’s email users are required to set up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) on their Google Workspace accounts.

✅ What is 2FA?

Two-Factor Authentication adds an extra layer of protection to your account by requiring a second step to sign in—usually a code sent to your phone or generated by an app.

?️ Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Go to Your Google Account Settings

• Visit: https://myaccount.google.com/

• Sign in with your Vala’s email address and password.

2. Click on "Security"

• In the left-hand menu, select Security.

3. Locate "2-Step Verification"

• Under the “Signing in to Google” section, find 2-Step Verification and click on it.

4. Click “Get Started”

• Re-enter your password when prompted.

5. Set Up Your Second Factor

You can choose how to receive your verification codes:

• Phone Prompt: Google will send a prompt to your phone.

• Text Message or Call: Enter your phone number to receive a code via SMS or call.

• Authenticator App: Use an app like Google Authenticator or Authy to generate time-based codes.

6. Confirm & Finish Setup

• Follow the instructions on-screen to complete setup.

• Google may ask you to test the method before confirming it.
