MFA technology introduces a vital second layer of security during user authorization. With MFA, users must employ an additional verification element, such as receiving a code via SMS, phone call, or using a mobile application for confirmation. This approach significantly diminishes the risk of unauthorized account access. Even if malicious actors acquire usernames and passwords, they won't be able to bypass the second confirmation factor.
WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND IMPLEMENTING THIS FEATURE FOR ALL ACCOUNTS to bolster Microsoft 365 security.
