What is it?
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds extra security when logging in. It requires more than just a password.
Tech Understandability: Beginner
Simple One-Sentence Definition
Multi-Factor Authentication makes accounts safer with extra steps for logging in.
Analogy or Comparison
It is like a double-locked door; you need two keys to get inside.
Why it matters?
MFA protects your personal information from hackers. Even if a password gets stolen, accounts stay secure.
Fun Fact
MFA can use something you know (like a password) and something you have (like a phone) for extra security.
