Why Multi-Factor Authentication?

Identity theft is on the rise, putting businesses of all sizes at risk. However, small businesses are being targeted over larger ones mostly due to the assumed lack of security. The most reliable vectors for attackers are weak and stolen passwords, so implementing Multi-Factor Authentication or MFA adds another layer of protection.

MFA works by verifying each user accessing your network through some other unrelated means. This could be a separate phone app with time-sensitive codes or it could be through email or SMS verification – something an attacker wouldn’t be able to access simultaneously. This is a proven method for keeping unauthorized users out of accounts, and can even boost productivity with added single sign-on features.
