MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication)
MFA, or Multi-Factor Authentication, is a security method that requires users to verify their identity with more than one credential before gaining access. For example, logging in with a password and a one-time code sent to a mobile device.
In a bank or credit union intranet, MFA helps protect sensitive data by making it much harder for unauthorized users to gain access - even if they know a username and password.
Why It Matters
- Protects against phishing and password reuse
- Meets FFIEC and NCUA security expectations
- Reduces the risk of unauthorized intranet access
- Boosts staff confidence in secure tools
