Technology Tip Tuesday
It's a New Year, but here is an old message from ITSS.
Set your personal accounts up with multi-factor authentication (MFA), which adds another layer of security to your information. It consists of something you only know (such as an answer to a question), something you have (your smartphone), or something that identifies you as a person (fingerprint, voice pattern, or facial scan). MFA is especially important for your email, and your banking and social media accounts.
The Microsoft Authenticator app we use at 91探花 can be used for your other accounts to simplify things. The authenticator generates one-time passcodes every 30 seconds. The code expires after half a minute, so if someone manages to get it, it will not work after that time has passed.
Take care with your personal information. Happy New Year from ITSS!
