What is Multifactor Authentication (MFA)?
What would happen if an employee carelessly left their password to your system unsecured? What if that password ended up for sale on the dark web, as part of a data breach?
Multifactor authentication (MFA) is a password system that’s specifically designed to address this threat. MFA is deceptively simple security tool, but it can protect the “front door” entry to your systems like nothing else. How? By requiring more than one method of identification before a user/employee gains access to your systems.
This simple action foils nearly every hacker attempting to use your employee’s stolen network credentials. It’s considered a standard cybersecurity requirement for most companies, because it works. And best of all, with Integris, we’ll manage all the details for you, setting up, managing, monitoring, and servicing your accounts.
