INDIANAPOLIS— You can add an extra layer of security to your phone and computer, and it doesn’t cost a thing. Multi-factor authentication is an extra step you can take after you’ve entered your username and password.

Multi-factor authentication is an extra security step after entering your username and password. Many websites and apps require this, but it is optional on many sites. The CEO at the ITRC, Eva Velasquez, has stated that enabling MFA on all accounts that offer it greatly reduces risk. The biggest caveat is not sharing the code with anyone. Avoid using text messages for MFA as phone numbers can be hijacked through SIM-swapping. Instead, use authenticator apps or hardware keys for stronger protection.
