Key Topics Covered:
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): A security practice that requires the user to provide something they know (password) and something they have (physical device or code).
- Multifactor Authentication (MFA): Similar to 2FA but with an additional layer of complexity, such as a fingerprint or retina scan, to further secure login access.
- SFA vs. 2FA vs. MFA: Comparison of the security levels offered by single-factor authentication (SFA), 2FA, and MFA, highlighting the advantages of 2FA and MFA in protecting against unauthorized access.
