Setting up multi-factor authentication for WPS Cloud is an essential step to enhance the security of your account and protect your documents from unauthorized access.

To begin the setup process, first log in to your WPS Cloud account using your email address and password through the official website or the WPS Office application.

You can reach the settings menu by clicking on your profile icon or avatar located in the upper right corner of the interface.

Look for the settings gear icon near your profile picture and choose either Security Settings or Account Management from the options presented.

In the Security Settings area, look for an option labeled Multi Factor Authentication or 2FA.

Click on Enable or Set Up to start the configuration.

You will be prompted to choose your preferred method of receiving the second authentication code.

The safest choice is an app-based authenticator — options include Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or Google Authenticator.

These apps generate time based one time passwords that refresh every 30 seconds and do not rely on internet connectivity or SMS delivery, making them more secure.

A scannable QR code will appear automatically once you choose app-based authentication.

Within your authenticator app, press the plus icon, choose "Scan Barcode," and align your phone’s camera with the QR code displayed.

The app will then generate a six digit code that corresponds to your WPS Cloud account.

Paste the six-digit number from your authenticator app into the confirmation field and click Verify to finalize the process.

It is crucial to save the backup codes provided during this process.

These codes are single use and can be used to regain access to your account if you lose access to your authenticator app or phone.

Never keep these codes digitally on the same device where your login details are stored — use an offline printout or secure vault.

Storing recovery codes with your passwords defeats the purpose of MFA — keep them completely separate and offline.

After successful verification, 2FA is fully enabled and will apply to all future login attempts.

After entering your password, a prompt will require the time-sensitive code from your authenticator app for verification.

You may also be given the option to remember the device for 30 days to avoid repeated two step verification on trusted devices.

If SMS verification is available, disable it immediately to reduce vulnerability.

Attackers can hijack phone numbers through social engineering, compromising SMS-based codes.

Never leave your phone unlocked — enable fingerprint, face ID, or a strong numeric passcode to protect your authenticator app.

Finally, periodically review your connected devices and active sessions within the WPS Cloud security settings.

Any unrecognized access should trigger immediate logout and a password reset as a precaution.

Keep your authenticator app updated and ensure your phone’s operating system is current to benefit from the latest security patches.

By enabling multi factor authentication on your WPS Cloud account, you significantly reduce the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access to your files.

With MFA enabled, even stolen passwords won’t grant access — keeping your files safe from digital intruders
