Southern California Gas Company 2FA Setup Guide
Southern California Gas Company supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Southern California Gas Company account.
A Southern California Gas Company account can control services and connected devices, so protect it with 2FA. Besides an authenticator app, Southern California Gas Company 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.
