Authenticator App - Novaz

Russian Post (Почта России) 2FA Setup Guide

pochta.ru Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on Russian Post (Почта России) to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Russian Post (Почта России) asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

A Russian Post (Почта России) account can hold your deliveries and addresses, so protect it with 2FA. Besides an authenticator app, Russian Post (Почта России) also offers SMS text codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods Russian Post (Почта России) supports

  • SMS text message
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
