Explanation

Multifactor Authentication (MFA) enhances security by requiring multiple forms of verification before granting access to an application. This typically includes something the user knows (like a password), something the user has (such as a smartphone or a token), or something the user is (like a fingerprint). By requiring multiple factors, MFA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, even if one factor (such as a password) is compromised.
