The 30-Second Security Audit 🕒

Want to bulletproof your accounts? Check off these three items to stay ahead of bad actors this season:

  • Double Your Defense: Log into your CRA My Account and add a backup MFA option. It’s the best way to prevent lockouts!
  • App Shortcut: Open your Neo app settings and toggle on Biometric Login. It’s faster than a password and much harder to spoof.
  • Alert Check: Ensure your Neo push notifications are on. Real-time alerts are your best tool for spotting a weird transaction the second it happens.

Are you running into any snags setting up your MFA or CRA account? Ask your questions below; let’s help each other out! :backhand_index_pointing_down:

@Yeni-Neo TY for the post - I have all of those setup feeling good about !

Quick add from experience: if you’re setting up MFA, having both a phone option and a backup method (like an authenticator or passcode grid) can save you a headache later.

That backup MFA tip is especially clutch, the CRA is actually pushing for everyone to have multiple sign-in options now, since it helps prevent lockouts and adds another layer of protection if one method fails.

Great security suggestions. They are ones that can be applied to many different accounts/logins to keep things safe and secure!

I would say that nowadays password manager is a must have as well as using throwaway emails.

SimpleLogin is very famous service, that allows you to create throwaway e-mails, so essentially for every account you use not only a unique password but also a unique e-mail.
this way if you mailbox gets compromised it’s impossible to trigger reset password in any other service, because no services are using that e-mail.

That’s interesting… so the emails don’t forward to your master email inbox, they stay in SimpleLogin? How do you get messages from those dummy emails for all the services you’ve signed up for?

Nope, simple login, doesn’t store mails; it just redirects them, klike a post office - it just knows which ones shall get into your master e-mail.

You get all your mail to your master box, so for incoming mail, basically no difference, as if it was sent to your master email.

There are some additional steps you need to take when you want to send mail from a dummy email, but it’s fairly straightforward.
