Access Backup Plan


Listen Later

You’re using a password manager. You’re even using two-factor authentication. Great! When done properly, this will keep the bad guys out. Unfortunately, if you’re not careful, it may also keep you out. If you forget your master password or lose access to your 2FA device, you’ll be in real trouble… unless you have an access backup plan. This same plan can also help your spouse or next of kin to access your accounts should you die or become incapacitated.
