Why MFA matters
Credential theft through phishing and password reuse is behind a large share of account compromises. Multi-factor authentication means a stolen password alone is not enough to log in, and it is a requirement for cloud services under Cyber Essentials.
Authentication methods
- Duo Push via the Duo Mobile app, with verified push
- Passkeys, Touch ID, Windows Hello and FIDO2 security keys
- One-time passcodes and hardware tokens
- Phone call and SMS where policy allows
What Duo MFA protects
- Microsoft 365 and Entra ID, Google Workspace and SaaS apps
- VPNs and firewalls from major vendors, including Cisco Secure Client
- Windows logon, macOS logon and RDP
- On-premises web apps, Linux SSH and custom applications
