MFA typically involves a combination of two or more of the following factors: 1. Knowledge Factors: Something the user knows, such as a password or PIN. 2. Possession Factors: Something the user has, like a smartphone or security token. 3. Inherence Factors: Something the user is, such as a fingerprint or facial recognition.
Using multiple factors makes it considerably harder for unauthorized individuals to gain access, even if one factor is compromised.
