Keep Your Money Safe

Hackers and scammers are always looking for ways to get access to your important information, but multifactor authentication (MFA) can make that more difficult for the scammers to do so and also keeps your information safer. Here is what you need to know about multifactor authentication (MFA):

  • MFA is an added layer of security.
  • MFA makes stealing your information harder.
  • The most popular methods of MFA are challenge questions and one-time passcodes sent to you via text, phone call, or email.
  • MFA is becoming more and more popular so most platforms have it as an option to use as an additional layer of security.

Bottom line, if you have the option to add multifactor authentication security – do it. It is essential for secure data storage and reduces you risk of getting your important information stolen.
