Why do many services push you to use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
Here's why MFA matters:
It adds extra security layers beyond passwords
It combines multiple verification methods
It significantly reduces the risk of account breaches
How MFA works:
You provide at least two of these:
Something you know (password)
Something you have (phone or security key)
Something you are (fingerprint or face scan)
Result? Even if a hacker cracks your password, they can't access your account without the other factors.
Pro tip: Enable MFA on all your essential accounts today. It's a small but still under-utilized step that significantly affects your online safety.
