TOTP stands for Time-Based One-Time Password. This is a standardized method for generating a regularly-changing password that is based on a shared secret, ensuring that each code is unique.TOTP provides additional security because even if a traditional password is stolen or compromised, with a TOTP, the authentication app generates a new six-digit one-time security code (OTP) every 30 seconds to prevent your account from an unauthorized access.
To configure Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), you should link your account and the authentication app on your mobile device.
