Multi-Factor Authentication

What is Multi-Factor Authentication Tools?

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a tool that increases security by requiring two or more means of verification to gain access. An extra layer of security such as email, text message or fingerprint is required before users can login and access accounts. MFA software works to stop attackers from compromising passwords, while still making it easy and quick for legitimate users to access their accounts.
