Multi-factor authentication: dual authentication

An MFA account reduces the possibility of account corruption by 95% .

To ensure the basic security of your information system, we invite you to implement double authentication under certain conditions. This double authentication confirms the connection request to the platform.

There are various ways to set up a second authentication: SMS, phone call, use of the Authentificator application, phone presence check, etc.

As SMS is no longer considered by Microsoft as a sufficient authentication factor, it is recommended to use the Authentificator application or Fido keys.

To facilitate access to your information system, it is possible to activate this double authentication in specific cases: when you are away from the premises, when the workstation used does not belong to the company, etc.

It's worth noting that any Cyber insurance policy will no longer pay out in the event of an attack if the MFA is not in place, and Microsoft absolves itself of any responsibility in the event of a hack if the MFA has not been put in place. MFA has become the BASE of security!
