The Internal Revenue Service says that its Get Transcript tool is back online and more secure than ever. I'm not sure what that means but I do know that they are finally using a two-step authentication process.
To use the new tool, you’ll still need to know all the info about yourself that was previously required — Social Social Security Number, address, filing status — but in addition, you’ll need to provide an email address, a cell phone that can receive text messages, and certain financial account information (a credit card number, or mortgage or home equity loan, auto loan etc.) to further authenticate your identity.
