Does Elster support 2FA?

elster.deGovernmentNot yet

Elster does not currently support authenticator-app (TOTP) two-factor authentication. Elster does offer 2FA via its own app and a hardware token — better than nothing, but an authenticator app is the more secure option if Elster adds it.

2FA methods Elster supports

  • Proprietary app
  • Hardware token

Elster does not offer an authenticator-app (TOTP) option yet. Authenticator apps are safer than SMS, so it's worth requesting.

How to keep your Elster account secure

Use a long, unique password (a password manager helps), turn on any 2FA method Elster offers, and stay alert to phishing. See Elster's official security documentation ↗. If Elster adds authenticator-app support, you'll be able to use MS Authenticator App.
