Connection to the website of the Gosuslugi from 2022 will be possible only by SMS

Reported by Izvestia .

Currently, users can enter the site only with a username and password, without using the second factor to confirm the entry. But from 2022, the entrance will need to be confirmed by entering the code from SMS. The ministry believes that in this way they will protect user data from fraudsters.

Moreover, push-pull authentication can be configured now, but 90% of users do not.

As a reminder, this year's children caused a public outcry when the journalist spoke about the hacking of her account on the Gosuslugi and the change of her registration there. Moreover, the changes were made by the Personal Data Processing Center of "United Russia".

In response to complaints about hacking, the Ministry of Digital Security advised using a more complex password to log in.
