<h2>Multi-Factor Authentication</h2>
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is an industry-standard security measure that enhances account protection by requiring users to provide multiple forms of verification before accessing a system or application. It is designed to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, even if a password is compromised.&nbsp;
<h4>How Does MFA Work?</h4>
Savology MFA operates by requiring authentication from two categories:
<ol>
<li>Something You Know – A password</li>
<li>Something You Have – A security token</li>
</ol>
Savology complies with financial industry best practices by requiring administrators to complete MFA per device every 30 days.
<h4>How to Enable Force MFA for Users:</h4>
In addition to requiring administrators to complete MFA every 30 days per device, admins are now able to force MFA for their users as well.
<ul>
<li style="font-style: italic;">While signed into your administrator account &gt; Navigate to Manage Account &gt; Settings Tab &gt; Scroll down to Other Features &gt; Change 'Force user MFA' to Yes &gt; Save your changes</li>
<li>Users will now be required to complete MFA upon Savology login</li>
</ul>
