Protect your data with two-factor authentication

Did you know many actions you take online can place your password at risk? Here are some of the ways you can have your password stolen:

• Using the same password on more than one site
• Downloading software from the Internet
• Clicking on links in email messages

Two-factor authentication (TFA) can help keep bad guys out, even if they have your password.

TFA provides an extra layer of security

Most people only have one layer – their password – to protect their account. With TFA, if someone hacks through your password layer, he or she will still need your phone to get into your account.

Verification codes made just for you

Our system creates codes when you need them. Sent to your phone via text, each code can only be used once. If you lose your phone, contact us for assistance. The texts originate from area code 514. Your carrier's standard messaging rates may apply.
