Multi-factor authentication (MFA) – Protect your business from unauthorized access

In an era where cyberattacks and identity theft are on the rise, multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a critical security mechanism to protect user accounts and systems.

Passwords alone are not enough – with multi-factor authentication (MFA), you ensure that only authorized users gain access to your organization's resources.

What is multi-factor authentication (MFA)? 

MFA requires users to verify their identity with at least two of the following factors: 

  • Something you know – Password or PIN. 

  • Something you have – One-time code via mobile app, SMS, smart card, or security key. 

  • Something you are – Biometric data such as fingerprint or facial recognition. 

By combining multiple factors, the risk of unauthorized access is reduced – even if a password is compromised. 

Why is MFA important? 

  • Protects against account attacks – Prevents attackers from accessing accounts even if passwords are leaked. 

  • Reduces phishing risk – Even if an employee is tricked into giving up a password, an additional verification is still required. 

  • Secures cloud and SaaS services – MFA is crucial for accessing Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, AWS, Azure, and other cloud solutions. 

  • Strengthens compliance with security requirements – Meets requirements in GDPR, NIS2, and NSM basic principles. 

  • Easy implementation – Modern MFA solutions are user-friendly and can be integrated into existing systems.
