Multi-Factor-Authentication (MFA) What is multi-factor authentication (MFA)? Multi-factor authentication (MFA) provides an additional layer of security in verifying a person’s identity when using online accounts. MFA makes it more difficult for an attacker/hacker to impersonate you (or one of your customers) and get access to your computer, online accounts, or other resources.
Multi-Factor-Authentication (MFA) • Summary of Key Points • DOL is adding this extra level of security to help protect the customer’s identity and data – and that of their customers. • Vehicle/vessel businesses were requiredto start using MFA on June 25. • A pre-enrollment opportunity for vehicle/vessel businesses began Tuesday, May 22nd, and ended the week of June 18. • Do not share your unique login information. • Take care to enter your information correctly. WaTech or DOL cannot recover your account if you enter erroneous information and later cannot recall what you entered. • Whom do I contact if I have problems logging in? • You may call our Production Support Unit at 360.664.9698, or send an email to driveshelp@dol.wa.gov.
