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