You click on the generate button and a series of unrelated characters, letters and numbers appear.

Some software uses it and some don&#8217;t. If they offer this it&#8217;s a great way to really keep your password secure. How this works is the software you&#8217;re generating a password for asks you for a phone number to text or an email to contact during initial setup. Then when you attempt to login to the software later, a text or email will be sent with an authentication code. You then have to enter that code into the original software to be allowed access (thus the name double authentication). While this may not be convenient, it is a very safe way to operate. If someone gets access to your email account because of a weak password, they can send malicious content from you email account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to learn more about proper password set up and practices contact us at <a href=\"https:\/\/d-interventions.com\/di\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Design Interventions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What they&#8217;re saying:<\/p>\n<p>\u2026mega props to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Design-Interventions\/171241856236115\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Design Interventions<\/a>\u00a0for making us look so good!
