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