After being announced a few months ago, the PSN Two-Step Verification that was promised for all of us has finally been made available!

If you don’t know what is 2-step verification, here’s the description from the page on PlayStation.com:

When signing into your account on the network, you will use your password along with a verification code that you will receive on your mobile phone via text. By requiring two forms of identification for sign-in, your account and personal information will be protected.

In short, if someone gets access to your PSN password, and tries to login, you’ll receive a SMS message on your phone. The attacker won’t get access to your account and you’ll know your account is compromised. Time to change your password!

Seriously, activate Two-Step Verification right now, and thank me later!
