 What is Multi Factor Authentication
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is used to ensure that digital users are who they say they are by requiring
that they provide at least two pieces of evidence to prove their identity. Each piece of evidence must come from a
different category: something they know, something they have or something they are:

How does its work?

The authentication process always runs at the start of the application, before the permission and throttling
checks occur, and before any other code is allowed to proceed. Different systems may require different
types of credentials to ascertain a user’s identity. The credential often takes the form of a password, which
is a secret and known only to the individual and the system. Three categories in which someone may be
authenticated are: something the user knows, something the user is, and something the user has.
