Why you should use 2FA for USAA?

USAA is a financial services company that offers banking, insurance, and investment services to members of the military and their families. If you're a USAA member, enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) is a smart move to protect your account from unauthorized access.
 

 With 2FA, you'll need to provide a second form of authentication in addition to your password when logging in. This could be a code sent to your phone or generated by an app like our Authenticator. Even if someone manages to steal your password, they won't be able to access your account without this second factor.
 

 USAA takes security seriously and offers several options for 2FA, including text message codes, phone calls, and our Authenticator app. We recommend using our app for the most secure option.
 

 In addition to enabling 2FA, there are other steps you can take to protect your USAA account. Make sure your password is strong and unique, and never share it with anyone. Keep your computer and mobile devices up to date with the latest security patches and antivirus software. And be wary of phishing scams that try to trick you into giving away your login credentials.
 

 By taking these steps, you can help ensure that your USAA account stays secure and your personal information stays private.
