Multi-Factor Authentication
Multi-factor authentication can also be called two-step verification or 2-factor authentication (2FA).
Multi-Factor Authentication services offer a second level of authentication for your web apps. After a simple username and password input, you must then either respond to a call, text, fingerprint or application notification to gain full access to your device.
Weak or stolen user credentials are used in 95% of all web application attacks. Access security has adapted to new attacks over time as passwords alone were deemed to be insecure.
Further guidance is available at the National Cyber security Centre.
As long as passwords are used for authentication, there will always be a chance that users and administrators will choose machine-guessable passwords and be susceptible to social engineering. Therefore:
Device Encryption is an extra consideration, which provides centralised control to protect access to email, documents, downloading and copying to name but a few benefits.
