MFA helps protect against unauthorized access by verifying the identity of users before they gain access to your cloud services. Here are a few advantages you can get by using MFA:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No passwords needed for\u200b access<\/li>\n<li>Additional layer of \u200csecurity \u200bto access AWS<\/li>\n<li>Access has to be explicitly authorized<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>MFA works by requiring users to provide \u200dtwo forms of authentication \u2013\u200c something you know, such as a\u2062 passcode \u2063generated from\u200c a\u200b token-based device, plus something you have, such as a \u2063one-time password sent to your phone. These two \u200bforms of authentication form a secure barrier against malicious users, allowing only authorized users to gain access to your AWS services. It \u200balso helps reduce the risk of data breaches, as\u200d it makes it impossible \u200cfor hackers to gain access if either one authentication fails.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"2-setting-up-multiple-mfa-devices-for-aws-security\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Setting_Up_Multiple_MFA_Devices_for_AWS_Security\"><\/span>2.
