I just wanted to share a bit of good news: America First Credit Union finally added support for an authenticator app instead of just email or text message.
If your bank doesn’t have it yet, you could make a request, and definitely check back from time to time. They didn’t actually notify me that they had added it, so I didn’t realize for a while.
It was only when I saw it was enabled on my daughter’s account that it was available.
If you’re wondering why you should use two factor authentication, please listen to Super Simple Security Principles, episode 3.
Or if you’re wondering why an authenticator app is better than email or text message, listen to Super Simple Security Principles, episode 28.
I’d love to hear if your bank supports an authenticator app!
