MFA
Multi-Factor Authentication
Multi-factor authentication requires users to verify their identity through two or more independent factors: something they know, something they have, or something they are. MFA blocks most credential-stuffing and phishing attacks.
Como é usado em cibersegurança
Security teams enforce MFA on all user and admin accounts as a first line of defense. SOC analysts triage MFA-related alerts like push fatigue attacks and SIM-swap attempts. Penetration testers probe for MFA bypass paths during security assessments.
