Yes, updated Federal security policies require that each RDS Secure Website account must activate Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) prior to accessing the RDS Secure Website. Beginning in August 2019, you will be required to enter the time-sensitive unique token generated by Google Authenticator, in addition to your RDS Login ID and Password, to access the RDS Secure Website.
MFA activation only needs to be completed once for each new Secure Website Account, unless you are setting up a new MFA device or you need to reset your MFA token. Ensure you have received the registration confirmation email before activating MFA; you must have an active and valid RDS Secure Website account prior to activating MFA.
Individuals are responsible for maintaining and protecting their RDS Secure Website account access. It is a violation of Federal law to share or transfer user accounts or Login and Password information.
Refer to Multi-Factor Authentication for additional information.
