Required 2-Step Verification For Google Accounts

🔐 Keep Your Google Account Secure!

• ---

  2-Step Verification is now required for google accounts

  2-Step Verification (2SV) provides critical account protection by requiring a second form of verification beyond the password. For enhanced security, 2SV is now required for you and all other admins in your organization. You’ll begin seeing notifications with a reminder to turn it on for your account, and you may not be able to access some Google services until you do. If 2SV isn’t turned on by October 23, you’ll be locked out of your Google Account and will need help from another admin at your organization to regain access. Take action as soon as possible.
