Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
ABOUT MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION (MFA)
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a security system that requires more than one method of authentication to verify a user's identity for a login or other transaction. Categories for authentication may include knowledge (something a user knows), possession (something a user has), and inherence (something a user is). MFA provides an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized access to systems.
