GitHub will start requiring active developers to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on their accounts beginning next week, on March 13.

Once expanded to the company's entire user base, the 2FA enrollment requirement will help secure the accounts of more than 100 million users.

The gradual rollout will start next week with GitHub reaching out to smaller groups of administrators and developers via email and will speed up as the end of the year approaches to ensure that onboarding is seamless and users have time to sort out any issues.
