Multi- Factor Authentication

Multi Factor Authentication is a user access authentication via an account where in an API, two or more forms of authentication are used. Traditional single-factor authentication involves a password. In contrast, MFA adds an extra layer of protection by requiring additional information. This can include various methods, such as a code sent to your phone, a fingerprint scan, or even facial recognition. BenefitsCal MFA means your account will be protected not only by your specific  password but also by an additional authentication step. This will ensure that only you can access your personal data.
