Monek Portal MFA Changes​

Admin users can now edit users MFA methods from the new 'Users' page (formerly 'Admin'). This includes updating phone numbers and switching between SMS 2FA (text message) and email.

Key Benefits:​

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) offers several benefits, enhancing security and improving access control. Key advantages include:

  • Enhanced security:
    By requiring multiple forms of authentication, MFA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, even if one factor, like a password, is compromised..

  • Protection against credential theft:
    It mitigates risks from phishing and keylogging, as a second authentication factor is typically required..

  • Compliance with regulations:
    Many industries require MFA to meet compliance standards (e.g., GDPR, PCI DSS), ensuring better adherence to security policies..

  • Flexibility and adaptability:
    MFA can incorporate different methods (SMS, email, app-based, biometrics) tailored to user needs and organisational security policies.

  • Boosts user confidence:
    End users and customers are reassured that their accounts and sensitive information are protected with strong authentication measures..
