How do I set up multi-factor authentication?

Multi-factor authentication is set up directly within each account you use (for example, your bank, email provider or social media platform). While steps vary slightly between providers, it usually involves setting up verification codes via SMS or an authenticator app. Popular authenticator apps are Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator.

After receiving a Truyu alert, we recommend starting with:

• Your email account (this is often the key to resetting other passwords).

• Online banking and financial accounts.

• Superannuation and government accounts.

Taking this step now can significantly reduce the risk of further misuse.
