Short presentation and guide to signing in safely, enabling protections, and troubleshooting access to your Gemini account. Designed for office handouts, quick training, or embedding into an internal portal.
This short presentation explains the recommended steps to log in to Gemini securely, how to enable multi-factor authentication (MFA), how to recognize phishing or social engineering attempts, and practical tips for account recovery and device security.
Always start at the official domain. Bookmark the URL and use that bookmark rather than following links in email or chat. Look for HTTPS and a valid certificate in the browser address bar.
Use a strong, unique password (use a password manager). After entering credentials, complete the configured second factor: an authenticator app, hardware key (WebAuthn / security key), or SMS (if enabled). Prefer authenticator apps or hardware keys over SMS.
MFA protects your account even if your password is compromised. Gemini supports authenticator apps and hardware security keys—register at least two methods if possible to avoid lockout.
Gemini can notify you when a new device or IP accesses your account. Review and revoke devices you don’t recognize immediately.
If you lose access to your second factor, use your recovery codes or follow the official recovery flow. Be prepared to provide identity verification if required. Never share recovery details in chat or email.
Grant account access only to users who need it. For teams using institutional accounts, use role-based access controls and auditing to log who performed actions and when.
Run short training sessions and phishing simulations. Review sign-in logs monthly and remove unused devices and sessions.
