+We're excited to announce that two-factor authentication (2FA) is now available for all Read the Docs users!
+
+Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a 6-digit code in addition to your password when you log in.
+This helps protect your account from unauthorized access, even if your password is compromised.
+You can use an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Authy to generate the codes.
+
+You can enable two-factor authentication from our new dashboard at <https://app.readthedocs.org/accounts/2fa/> (or <https://app.readthedocs.com/accounts/2fa/> for Read the Docs for Business users),
+or by following the steps from [our documentation](https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guides/management/2fa.html).
+
+We'd like to give a special thanks to the [django-allauth](https://allauth.org/) project for providing the foundation for our authentication system,
+and making it easy for us to add two-factor authentication to Read the Docs.
