ARLB007 FCC to Require Two Factor Authentication for CORES Users
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has announced an
upcoming change to the Commission Registration System (CORES) that
licensees use to pay any application or regulatory fees, manage or
reset a password on an existing FRN, or request a new FRN. Beginning
March 29, 2024, multifactor authentication will be implemented.
Users will be prompted to request a six-digit secondary verification
code, which will be sent to the email address(es) associated with
each username. The user will then need to enter the code into CORES
before they can continue.
In a public notice, the FCC said this change will make the system
more secure. "This additional layer of security will further
safeguard against unauthorized access, thereby enhancing the overall
integrity of information contained within the CORES system and
improving the security of user data," it read.
