    Why you should use 2FA for Northwestern Mutual?

    Northwestern Mutual is a financial services company that offers a range of products and services to help people plan for their financial future. One of the ways that Northwestern Mutual is helping to keep their customers' information safe is by offering two-factor authentication (2FA) for their online accounts.
     
    
     Enabling 2FA is an important step in protecting your online accounts from unauthorized access. With 2FA, you'll need to provide a second form of authentication, such as a code sent to your phone or a fingerprint scan, in addition to your password. This makes it much harder for hackers to gain access to your account, even if they have your password.
     
    
     When you enable 2FA on your Northwestern Mutual account, you'll be asked to provide a phone number where you can receive a verification code. Once you've entered the code, you'll be able to access your account as usual. If someone tries to log in to your account from an unfamiliar device, they'll need to provide the verification code as well.
     
    
     In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other steps you can take to keep your Northwestern Mutual account secure. Make sure to use a strong, unique password for your account, and avoid using the same password for multiple accounts. You should also be cautious about clicking on links or downloading attachments from unfamiliar emails, as these could be phishing attempts.
     
    
     Overall, enabling 2FA is an important step in protecting your online accounts, including your Northwestern Mutual account. By taking a few simple steps to improve your account security, you can help ensure that your financial information stays safe and secure.
