Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a security practice requiring users to verify their identity using two or more independent credentials, typically something they know (a password), something they have (a phone or hardware token), or something they are (biometrics). IT security teams and platform providers implement it to protect accounts against credential theft and unauthorized access, commonly via authenticator apps, SMS codes, or hardware keys like YubiKey. It has become a standard requirement for securing corporate systems, banking, and personal online accounts.
