"Valve has rolled out a new security service for Steam users who want to protect their accounts from unauthorized logins or being stolen outright. Steam Guard is available for beta testing and anyone can opt into it through Steam's Settings panel. With Steam Guard, an extra step of authorization is needed whenever you attempt to login to your account from an unrecognized PC. A code is sent over to the e-mail address linked to the account, which must be entered into Steam before you're able to login and authorize the new PC. Steam Guard will also notify you if there are login attempts being made from unauthorized PCs."
PS: To opt into the latest Steam client beta and begin protecting your account with Steam Guard, launch the Steam client and visit Steam Settings' Account tab, then changing your beta participation to “Steam Update.”
