What Is Multi-Factor Authentication?
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a system that strengthens identity verification by adding authentication via an authentication app in addition to your Email address and Password.
While normal login uses only an "email address and password (knowledge-based factors)" for authentication, enabling Multi-Factor Authentication requires the additional entry of a "one-time password displayed on a mobile device (possession-based factor)."
By combining multiple authentication factors, it is possible to reduce the risk of unauthorized Logins compared to single-factor authentication.
