Multifactor authentication is better than nothing, but is it really just a false sense of security? With attackers increasingly knowing how to break MFA, whether technically or through social engineering, director Richard Richison switched his entire company of 1,600 employees over to a phishing-resistant process relying on biometric security keys and device-level checks.
In this episode of Ctrl Alt Lead, Richard and I talk about the flaws of modern MFA, potential replacements, and his selection and global rollout of a brand new system - plus the widespread embrace of the same, a rarity in anything related to cybersecurity!
