To MFA or Not To MFA | Huntress

Multifactor authentication (MFA) is presented as a critical security control that can prevent unauthorized financial transactions, yet it remains underutilized and often viewed as an inconvenience by organizations. The article questions why such an effective protective measure is not treated as a mandatory security requirement.

Why it matters: Finance and operations teams are at risk of wire fraud and unauthorized money transfers; practitioners should prioritize MFA implementation for payment systems and financial access as a business-critical control.
