Securely protecting your organization’s data and network has never been more important. Our primary line of defense for doing this, especially as companies start to really lean on cloud solutions to bring a level of cost control they hadn’t established before, is the password. The less secure the password, the less secure your data. If you are going to rely on passwords as the priority safeguard for your business accounts, you need to be using two-factor authentication (2FA).
Here’s the thing: even if your password policy is airtight and perfectly followed, relying on passwords alone isn’t enough anymore to secure your business. Some of today’s threats are just too capable of cracking them. In order to really preserve your business’ security, most security professionals (like us) recommend implementing two-factor authentication—however, it pays off to consider your options, and how much (if any) added security each has to offer.
