OTP\u2064 MFA requires users to not only have an account username and password, but also to enter a unique code sent to their cell phone or email address before they can access their account. This extra\u200b layer\u2062 of security ensures that only the user has access, even if their credentials have been exposed.<\/p>\n<p>With OTP \u200bmulti-factor authentication, the user\u200d will no\u200d longer be\u2062 the only person \u2064with the\u200b know-how to access their account.
