For making your AOL account more secure, two-step verification is a great option. It lets you save yourself when anyone tries to login into your account from an unrecognised device.

Beside the "Two-step verification” option, click the Toggle button to turn it on.
Enter your mobile number where you want to receive the verification code.
Click Send SMS or Call me to get the verification code.
After getting the verification code, Enter it, then click the Verify button.
