Voice or Text Message

Do NOT Use


Why shouldn't you use SMS?

2-Step Verification (2SV) uses something you have (like a key, code, or phone) and something you know (like a password). Because text messages are sent from an external source they can be intercepted or sent to a bad actor.

Codes you've downloaded or are generated on and by your phone are not sent, they are inherently something you have in your possession, that no one else would have access to.

Already have it set up? Remove it!

This option is no longer secure and will be removed soon.

After you have removed the SMS option from your Google Account, add two other methods

If you don't have another method set up, you will lose access to your SIL Google Account after August 15.
