Multifactor Authentication (MFA)

Multifactor Authentication (MFA) is a security process that requires you to verify your identity using two or more different methods before gaining access to an account or system. Typically, this involves something you know (like a password), something you have (like a smartphone or security token), or something you are (like fingerprint or facial recognition). By combining these factors, MFA significantly reduces the chance of unauthorized access, even if one factor, such as your password, is compromised. It enhances security by adding multiple layers of verification, making it more difficult for cybercriminals to breach your accounts.
