Homonym: MFA (Master)
MFA, or Multi-Factor Authentication, is a security process that requires users to provide two or more verification factors to gain access to an account or system. This method enhances security by combining something the user knows (like a password), something the user has (like a smartphone), and something the user is (like a fingerprint).
By implementing MFA, organizations can significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized access, as it is much harder for attackers to obtain multiple forms of verification. Many online services, including email and banking platforms, now offer MFA as a standard security feature to protect user accounts.
