Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
Stay Safer with Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
MFA provides extra security for our online accounts and apps. This security could be a code sent via text or email or generated by an app, or biometrics like fingerprints and facial recognition. Using MFA confirms our identities when logging into our accounts.
Follow these easy steps on each account:
- Go to Settings
It may be called Account Settings, Settings & Privacy or similar. - Look for and turn on MFA
It may be called two-factor authentication, two-step verification or similar. - Confirm
Select how to provide extra login security, such as by entering a code sent via text or email or using facial recognition.
After setting up MFA, logging in may require completing the MFA security step to prove our identities. It only takes a moment but makes us significantly safer from malicious hackers! Turn on MFA for every online account or app that offers it such as your email, online banking, social media, and more!
