Protect your personal data from unauthorized access.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is the use of more than one security method to gain access to online accounts or applications. By requiring users to provide more than one verification method, MFA significantly reduces the risk of cyberattacks.
What are the "factors" that make up a multi-factor authentication?
Something you know: A password, PIN, or security question.
Something you have: A smartphone, token, or smart card.
Something you are: Biometrics like a fingerprint or face ID.
An example of MFA would be logging in to your email with your password, and receiving a text message with a security code to enter before gaining access. Or requiring both a password and fingerprint scan.
It is recommended to use MFA for any account you have that offers it. This simple step can help protect your personal and account information.
