Segurança Gov.br: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to use the Segurança Gov.br scheme to add extra protection to your digital government accounts.
Segurança Gov.br is a security feature designed to protect your digital identity when you access government services online. It adds an extra layer of defense to ensure that only you can access your personal information and official accounts.
Who it's for
This scheme is available to all users of the government digital platform.
What you get
You get access to two-factor authentication (also known as Autenticação de Dois Fatores). This means that when you log in, you will need to provide a second form of verification—usually via your mobile device—to prove it is really you.
What it costs you
It is completely free to use.
The catch to know
To stay protected, you must make sure you always enable the two-factor authentication feature. Simply having an account is not enough; you must actively turn on this extra security step to ensure your data remains safe.
How to apply
- Visit the official government access portal.
- Log in to your existing account.
- Navigate to your security settings.
- Follow the prompts to enable two-factor authentication.
