Are you more likely to get your exchange account hacked if you often use your smart phone to access the account vs using a PC?

Use the exchange account on your PC and setup 2FA on your smartphone.

If you have 2FA on your smartphone then understand that by accessing the exchange on your phone you have put both factors (account password & OTP) on the same device which reduces security.
