Hi ccall48

Currently, it is optional to turn on/off the 2FA authentication but soon it will be mandatory by the ATO to meet new industry standards. Currently, the ATO website is getting maintenance done so I don't have a link, however, I do have the help page that will be updated when it becomes mandatory. Two-factor authentication for accountants and bookkeepers and 2FA authentication.

 

This recommendation for getting your account secure with 2FA is being promoted by most major companies that have an online cloud presence like MYOB, Xero, and Intuit QBO, etc.
