Does Carbonite support 2FA?
Carbonite does not currently support authenticator-app (TOTP) two-factor authentication. Carbonite does offer 2FA via SMS text message and phone call — better than nothing, but an authenticator app is the more secure option if Carbonite adds it.
2FA methods Carbonite supports
- SMS text message
- Phone call
Carbonite does not offer an authenticator-app (TOTP) option yet. Authenticator apps are safer than SMS, so it's worth requesting.
How to keep your Carbonite account secure
Use a long, unique password (a password manager helps), turn on any 2FA method Carbonite offers, and stay alert to phishing. See Carbonite's official security documentation ↗. If Carbonite adds authenticator-app support, you'll be able to use MS Authenticator App.
