Two-Factor Authentication (TFA)

Recent security breaches around the world have called for the need to be more cautious about securing customer data in their environment. The majority of these breaches are due to compromised passwords and unused account privileges.

Since Endpoint Central plays a major role in managing the endpoints in a customer's network, we have enforced our customers to enable Two-Factor Authentication which provides an additional layer of security to validate the user's authenticity.
