MFA requires \u2063a \u200cuser to provide more\u200d than one \u200cmeans of authentication. To log \u200din, \u2062you\u2019ll need \u200bsomething you\u2062 know, like a \u200dpassword,\u2062 and something you have\u200c or are \u200d\u2013 like a security\u200d token \u2063or biometric data.<\/p>\n<p>Using MFA can greatly reduce the chances\u200d of your digital identity being compromised.

With MFA, users are required\u2062 to authenticate or prove their identity\u200d with two or\u2064 more pieces\u2064 of evidence (factors) in order to \u2063gain access to a secure system.\u200b Common\u2064 factors include something they know, such as a\u200d password or PIN;\u200c something they\u200c have, such as \u2064a smartphone; and something they are, like \u2062their fingerprint. <\/p>\n<p>The goal of MFA identity\u2063 management is to\u200c prevent \u200da\u2063 malicious \u2064person from gaining \u2063access to an \u200caccount or system, \u200beven if they have\u200b the correct login \u2064credentials.\u2062 The added layers\u200b of security help\u200b ensure that \u2063it\u2019s really\u200d the right person\u200c accessing a system,\u200d and\u2063 not an imposter.

Rather than \u2063relying solely on \u200da password to \u2063authenticate a user, MFA adds an\u200b extra layer of security by requiring additional credentials. By \u2062taking this extra step, the risk of \u200bidentity \u200btheft is\u200d reduced\u200d and\u200d the user\u2019s\u2062 data\u2062 remains more secure.<\/p>\n<p>MFA identity management is \u200ca comprehensive\u2064 system that\u2063 can help protect\u200d all \u2064online accounts.
