Genius Terminal offers multiple non-passkey two-factor authentication options to harden account security against unauthorized access. Users can enable Email 2FA, Text Message 2FA, or WhatsApp 2FA, each adding an extra verification step after login. Once activated, the system sends a one-time security code through the chosen channel, which must be entered to complete sign-in.&#x20;

Genius Terminal’s session length setting controls how long you stay logged in before automatic logout, balancing convenience with security by limiting exposure from unattended devices.
