How do I secure my cPanel account and enable two‑factor authentication?

Security protects your site and data in cPanel

Use the following steps:

1. In cPanel, enable Two‑Factor Authentication under Security and follow setup with an authenticator app.
2. Use strong unique passwords and a password manager.
3. Limit access by IP where possible, enable ModSecurity, and keep software updated.
4. Regularly review access logs and revoke unused API tokens. When to contact support: if 2FA device is lost and you need account recovery – support will require verification to disable 2FA.
