Benefits of Two-Factor Authentication

2FA and MFA address the security risk posed by password only based logons by adding an extra level of protection.

Why Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is important

The humble password – guardian of our most confidential information – in today’s world, is the greatest threat to our security. Many passwords can be cracked in a matter of minutes, while users are falling victim to phishing scams with alarming regularity, inadvertently giving away account and password details.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) or Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is important, in that it can solve this security problem, simply and effectively. The solution provides an extra, and crucial, security layer, in addition to the user account and password, sending a code to a device or portal that the user has exclusive access to. This straightforward supplementary step addresses the vulnerability of password-only log-ins. Without your personal device, cyber attackers are unable to access your accounts and business applications.

Two-factor authentication is important because it protects weak logins and stolen credentials from being exploited by cyber attackers and helps defend your business and employees against brute-force attacks and phishing attempts.
