    As far as I'm aware 2-factor authentication is only currently available for your actual cPanel login.
    cPanel FTP uses standard username & password authentication & 2-factor is not currently available.

    Is PCMatic good as antivirus in this case? I've read Nathan Collier article and liked it. Would like to try it. I have one web project on CPanel places in one of the local hosting. Or maybe you can recommend something else.
