  • TOTP is used to increase security by requiring potential attackers to both know your password, and have your token generating device. Usually your phone. It is useful even if you have unique passwords because the attacker needs access to both your password management solution and to your token generating device to gain access. In my opinion, it’s worth setting up TOTP on all accounts that you care about.
