Note that GitHub has recently made changes to its 2FA settings that ask for action from many people: on https://github.com/orgs/numpy/people you can see that under "Two-factor authentication" the options increased; there is now a Secure/Insecure distinction instead of only Enabled/Disabled. If you want to move yourself from Insecure to Secure, you have to disable the SMS/mobile recovery option in your personal settings under "Password and authentication". A large majority of the 94 people with permissions are currently marked as Insecure.

You may need member acess to see the "Two-factor authentication"
dropdown selector, but in any case it seems disabling the SMS/mobile
recovery option is now recommended practice. Be sure to download and
keep your recovery codes safe, as that will now be the only accepted
mode to regain access if you loose your 2fa access (i.e. loose or
change your phone number).
