How To Secure Your Gmail Account

How To Secure
Your Gmail Account
from Hackers
All of us have our
Email
Accounts on
Gmail, Yahoo,
Hotmail
etc.Phising and
h*cking are
on the rise and
many of us have already faced
the
situtaions when our
email Id
has been
compromised.It is
very difficult to
estimate the
loss which one
undergoes
once his email ID has
been
h*cked.
Now you can add an
extra
layer of security in
your
Gmail Account.After enabling
this feature you
have to
enter an additional
verification code
(sent to
your mobile) to login
into
your account.So,if
somebody
h*cked your
password even
then he wonÁ¢??t be
able to
access your email
account.


How to Secure Gmail
Account:-


Login to your Gmail
Account
Now open this link
https://
www.google.com/
accounts/
SmsAuthConfig
Click on the Start
Setup
button.
Choose a
verification
method.By selecting
Text
message (SMS) or
voice
call you will recieve
the verification code on
you
phone either as text
message or as a
call.
Enter the
appropriate
information about
your
country and Mobile
Number.
Choose SMS text
message or Voice
call
option according to
your
need. (I prefer SMS
text message).
After giving your
mobile
number test your
phone by
clicking on the Send
Code
button.
Now you will receive
a
verification code on
your
given mobile number
and
type that code in the
verification field and
click on
Verify button.
After verifying your
number
click on the Next
button.
If you lost your
mobile or
your number is not
available
when you need it.
For this
you can save
backup codes
in to your computer.
Click on Next button
again.
Here you will see 10
Backup
verification codes. Choose
Print codes or Save
to
text file option
whatever
you like but keep it
safe and
donÁ¢??t lose it.
Check mark the box
and
click on Next button.
Here give your
working
alternative number.
And
click on Next button.
Now again click on
the Next button again and
then click
on the Turn on 2-
step
verification button.
Click OK.
ThatÁ¢??s it ! Now you
have
been added 2-step
verification security
to your
Gmail account. Now
whenever
you will enter your
password
it will ask you to
enter
verification code without it
you wonÁ¢??t be able to
login to
your Gmail Account.
