Two‑Factor Authentication in Social Security

Cegid informs that, regarding Employer Entities, the Social Security system is in the process of implementing two‑factor authentication (2FA), both for access to Segurança Social Direta (SSD) and to the Social Security Interoperability Platform (PSi), which manages the Web Services.

The option to create sub‑accounts associated with the main account is also being made available. Both measures aim to strengthen the protection of sensitive information and prevent unauthorised access. The activation of two‑factor authentication will be mandatory for Employer Entities from April 2026, with the official date to be announced soon by Social Security.

In this context, Cegid is working to provide, within its products, the mechanisms required to support these new legal measures. Meanwhile, we do not recommend activating 2FA authentication until these mechanisms are available in the products.

We will promptly inform you when the products are updated and include the necessary mechanisms for enabling this authentication method. Likewise, each product will include the required support documentation for adopting these measures.

Thank you.
