With one-tap verification and safe cloud backup, LastPass Authenticator provides you all the safety, with none of the frustration.
In order to make use of this authenticator, you could create a LastPass account in your desktop or cellular machine.
Add extra safety
Safeguard your LastPass account by requiring two-factor authentication codes when signing in. Two-factor authentication improves your digital safety by defending your account with an extra login step. Even in case your password is compromised, your account cannot be accessed with out the two-factor authentication code.
You may even mark a tool as “trusted”, so you will not be prompted for codes on that machine whereas your account stays protected by two-factor authentication.
