If you have a Facebook profile, it doesn't matter if you use it or not, it's important to add authentication two factors, for more security.
The social network already has an option that uses SMS for the Mission PIN verification, but today a new feature has been added that allows you to protect your account without having to provide your phone number.
All you need is an authentication application, such as Google Authenticator or authy.
Let's see how you can use the new feature security. Sign in to your Facebook account, and from the Settings Security and Login path in the Two-Factor Authentication field follow the steps below.
If you do not want to do the above route, click on the link:

Select the authentication application and you will see a QR box.
Enable the verification app (from Add New Application), give a new connection (myfacebook) and scan the QR box using the application of your choice.
Type the six-digit password that is automatically generated on your device at Facebook's prompt
Except you can remove your phone number from the base data of Facebook, this method will not forward you text messages every time someone tries to hack your account.
So the next time you sign in to Facebook from a new device or after the cookies that are already stored on your device expire, you need to run the authentication application to type the code that will show you.
The addition of new security, which essentially gives you the option of withdrawing from the telephone platform, is another measure taken as Facebook, in the wake of the scandal Cambridge Analytica.
