PS4, League of Legends, and Nintendo: These (and others) lack two-factor authentication

With game developers getting hacked, everyone should worry about the security of their online accounts — but not every company makes it easy to lock down your personal information and games.

Despite the security risks, the developers of games like Eve Online, League of Legends, and World of Tanks have all yet to implement two-factor authentication into their games, according to the security website Twofactorauth.org. Two-factor authentication is a practice where a person needs a password as well as a separate code (often sent on demand to a mobile device) to log into their account. This method is one of the best ways to prevent unauthorized access — even when someone nefarious has your password. In addition to those games, Sony’s, Nintendo’s, and GOG’s online networks all lack this extra layer of defense against hacking.
