Instagram reportedly started rolling out two-factor authentication

Two-factor authentication is possibly one of the best ways to keep your online accounts secure. It took Instagram long enough to adopt the feature but it seems that’s about to change soon. The app has reportedly started rolling out the feature to some of its users. When it’s available to you, you just need to verify your phone number. Once you open the app and try to sign in with your account name and password, you’ll get a text message with an authentication code that you need to log in with. Basically, it’s the same application with other two-factor authentication logins. There is no official word yet from Instagram when they’ll roll it out for everyone. But it should be making its way to you soon.
