Advice:

• Activate MFA on all accounts that support it. MFA adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification beyond just the password.
  • Something you know (password)
  • Something you have (a smartphone or hardware token)
  • Something you are (biometric data like fingerprints or facial recognition)

Guideline:

• Use an authenticator app (e.g., Google Authenticator, Authy, or Microsoft Authenticator) instead of SMS-based methods, as SMS can be vulnerable to interception and SIM-swapping attacks.
• Ensure that recovery options (like backup codes) are safely stored in a secure location to regain access in case the primary method is lost.
