Multi-factor authentication refers to a method of confirming identity by requiring a user to successfully present two or more identification factors. These factors can be something the user knows (like a password or PIN), something they possess (like a hardware token or smartphone) or something they are (like a fingerprint scan). A basic example is using an ATM; logging on requires the user to insert their debit card (a thing they possess) and enter their PIN (a thing they know).
But unfortunately, traditional MFA solutions are often difficult for businesses to implement and manage, especially those with limited IT resources. Our ecosystem offers dozens of integrations with 3rd party applications – ensuring that MFA protection is broadly applied for access to sensitive Cloud applications, web services, VPNs and networks.
