MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) as a Service is a cloud-based service that provides additional security for user authentication by requiring multiple methods of verification, such as a password and a security token/OTP/Notification
MFA-as-a-Service
MFA-as-a-Service (MFAaaS) is a cloud-based service that provides Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) functionality to users and organizations. MFA is a security mechanism that requires users to provide two or more forms of authentication to gain access to a system or application.
TRST Cyber MFAaaS offers organizations a convenient and secure way to implement MFA for their users without managing the infrastructure and resources required to provide MFA. Pennant Cyber manages the MFA infrastructure and provides APIs or SDKs that can be integrated into the
organization's applications or systems. MFAaaS typically offers a range of authentication methods, such as SMS-based one-time passwords, hardware and software tokens, biometrics, and other identity verification methods. These methods offer an additional layer of security and protect
against various cyber threats. Overall, MFAaaS can help organizations enhance their security posture by providing an easy-to-use and scalable solution for implementing MFA across their applications and systems while reducing the cost and complexity of managing their MFA infrastructure.
