Tranch has released an additional layer of protection in order to augment its already best-in-class security.
2FA is an additional layer of security that allows users to add another verification step when logging in. This additional step can be configured using three methods: SMS/text verification, authentication code via preferred authentication app, or by connecting an existing Google or Microsoft account to utilize single-sign-on (SSO). When enabled by each user, attempts to login without both methods of authentication will prevent access to sensitive data.
2FA’s dual-authentication prevents cybercriminals from hacking or accessing sensitive data and has been shown to avert 99.99% of unwanted access by unauthorized parties. Tranch’s multiple authentication methods mean users can further secure their accounts without introducing complexity to their day-to-day use of Tranch.
Settings can be updated in the ‘Account’ section of the lefthand navigation menu
All Tranch accounts - regardless of whether a firm employee or a firm client - can enable 2FA for enhanced account security. Note that while we encourage 2FA enabled on all accounts, it is not enabled by default, is not mandatory, and we do not have the ability to auto-set 2FA for firm employees or clients.
If you or your team have questions about 2FA or anything else Tranch-related, contact your account manager or email our support team at [email protected] or your dedicated VIP Partner inbox.
