Multi-factor authentication (MFA), also called two-factor authentication or similar terms, is an electronic authentication method in which a user is granted access to a device, website, or application only after successfully presenting two or more pieces of evidence ("factors") to an authentication mechanism. Typically, these factors include knowledge (something only the user knows), possession (something only the user has), and inherence (something only the user is). MFA is used to protect user data — which may include personal identification or financial assets — from being accessed by an unauthorized third party even if they may have been able to discover, for example, a single password. We explain the most common uses of MFA today, and how MFA is being implemented in our research computing environment.
