Frequently Asked Question

Strong passwords and multi-factor authentication help protect your accounts from unauthorized access.

Good password practices include:

• Use a unique password for every important account
• Use long passwords or passphrases
• Avoid names, birthdays, common words, or easy patterns
• Do not reuse your email password on other websites
• Never share passwords by email or text message

Multi-factor authentication adds a second step when signing in, such as a code, authentication app, or security key.

Enable multi-factor authentication whenever it is available, especially for:

• Email
• Banking
• Cloud storage
• Business accounts
• Social media
• Administrative accounts

If you receive an unexpected login approval request or authentication code, do not approve it. Someone may be trying to access your account.
