The settings have several tabs:

* **General**: Your user login credentials. Change your password and set up [Multi-Factor Authentication](#multi-factor-authentication) for your Encord user account.
* **[API keys](/platform-documentation/General/general-access-keys)**: creating and managing [SDK](/sdk-documentation/getting-started-sdk/installation-sdk) keys.

## Multi-Factor Authentication

1. In the *General* tab, click the **Manage Multi-Factor Auth** button.
   The **Enroll new Multi-Factor Authentication** dialog appears.
