Two-factor authentication for Public Records

Thomson Reuters is committed to ensuring that your access to Public Records and other sensitive data is safe and secure. That’s why we’re requiring users to implement two-factor authentication.

Two factor authentication is a type of two-step verification that provides a stronger, more robust level of security for users with access to Thomson Reuters public records products.

All authentication options provide the option to trust the device for easy access for 6 months. You can authenticate using:

Online Authenticator

Voice call

Text message

Best practices

It is recommended to set up authentication options across at least two devices when securing your account to ensure seamless access even if one device is not available. For example, using a third party authenticator app for two factor authentication on a phone and a tablet. Even better, set up multiple options, including text or voice code to multiple devices.
