> login info and MFA devices in a lock-box for them to inherit.
This seems wise, but won't work unless the software allows multiple MFA devices. I need my MFA device & phones on me to access my accounts several times a day. My bank logs me out after a few minutes and requires MFA to get back in
- twunde 7y agoMost MFA have backup codes that you can download during first setup. This is typical for the MFA using QR codes. For things like banks where they email/text you your temporary code, many already have processes in place for when someone passes away (ie typically someone needs to contact the bank with proof that xyz passed away).
- jamiesonbecker 7y agoYou can just save and print out the QR code onto paper and put that in your lockbox. Then your bequeathed can just scan those with their MFA device. Be sure to label them ;)
