Is it true that Facebook offers two-factor authentication as an optional security feature for user accounts?
Yes. A reference list of Facebook features states that Facebook offers two-factor authentication called "login approvals" that users can turn on, requiring a code for logins from unrecognized devices. Other sources confirm Facebook uses two-factor authentication but do not address whether it is optional.
