ESET Back 2 School

Posted on  by: 

 

 So how are schools to protect themselves and their students?

 
Single sign-on is a good first step, as it helps to reduce the number of passwords in use. But it’s not enough. That’s why schools are looking to multi-factor authentication. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) verifies a user’s identity by requiring multiple authentication factors instead of relying merely on passwords, which are susceptible to being compromised. Typically, the additional authentication factors are stronger, such as a one-time code that expires within a minute, or a biometric factor, such as fingerprint or facial recognition. Strong authentication factors provide increased assurance about the user’s identity since they are not easily compromised. With MFA, a cybercriminal may steal a username and password, but the criminal will be thwarted by having to verify identity in a different manner when attempting to log in. This means educational institutes are taking an extra step to secure their schools and protect their students.
