Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is now essential for the secure use of online services. MFA is a security mechanism that requires more than one method of identity verification when accessing accounts and systems. Authentication factors can be something you know (password), something you have (security key), or something you are (biometric data). Since traditional authentication methods such as using passwords alone are becoming less reliable, MFA provides businesses and users with additional protection against breaches and unauthorised access.
