Two-Factor Authentication is a security feature that helps safeguard your account information when users provide two distinct forms of identification. To enroll in Two-Factor Authentication, you will need to enter a phone number. Once this information is entered, you will choose one of the options to receive a one-time verification code:
- Text message to the cellphone number entered or,
- Automated phone call to the cellphone number entered.
After entering the provided verification code, you have the option to select "Don't ask for code again while using this device", allowing you to only have to enter a verification code once after logging in. Note: this option should not be selected when using a shared or public device.
