1 00:00:00,580 --> 00:00:08,500 So two factor authentication means your first factor is username and password, a standard combination. 2 00:00:08,830 --> 00:00:13,810 But the second factor, it's also sometimes known as multifactor authentication. 3 00:00:14,290 --> 00:00:16,940 You can use Microsoft authenticator. 4 00:00:16,940 --> 00:00:18,700 It's an app you can get from the App Store. 5 00:00:18,850 --> 00:00:20,410 It's actually my favorite way to do it. 6 00:00:20,860 --> 00:00:26,860 You have s.m s otherwise known as a text message, or you could have Code E emailed to you in an alternate 7 00:00:26,860 --> 00:00:27,760 email address. 8 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:34,540 Whatever you pick has got to work for you, but you do and should pick something because it will keep 9 00:00:34,540 --> 00:00:35,830 your account more secure. 10 00:00:36,170 --> 00:00:40,930 Being in the I.T. business for twenty five years, I've seen it all and people get compromised all the 11 00:00:40,930 --> 00:00:41,410 time. 12 00:00:41,710 --> 00:00:47,230 So this is the easiest and best defense on someone getting access to your system.
