As a financial platform with tens of thousands of investors and billions in assets flowing through our infrastructure, AngelList is committed to securing your account and protecting fund movement. The financial industry is a prime target for cyberattacks, and with AngelList’s networked banking infrastructure facilitating significant transactions for general partners (GPs) and limited partners (LPs), this added layer of security is essential.
In line with industry-standard financial practices, AngelList requires all users to set up 2-factor authentication (2FA) to ensure the highest level of account safety. 2FA strengthens security by requiring a one-time code upon login, which you can receive through an authenticator app or email. This extra step ensures that only you can access your account, even if your password is compromised.
