I hope at this point you benefit from some type of a single sign-on function where you don’t have to login separately for every work app. As a consumer you are likely familiar with and comforted by multi-factor authentication to get access to your bank account and other sensitive resources. But it’s alarming how SSO and MFA are not a harmonized set of capabilities across enterprise IAM and UEM., only 57% of companies have an MFA solution.
as the second factor it’s not secure enough. Fortunately, when coupled with UEM, MFA can evolve into headwaters for Zero Trust, password-less authentication and a satisfying user interaction. That may be a bold claim, but let’s consider the implications of password-less authentication to support the Zero Trust mantra of “never trust, always verify” in a way that does not hinder user productivity.It’s important to know what causes the aforementioned insecurity of SMS as a second factor: SIM swapping—i.e., when a malicious actor uses social engineering to convince a mobile carrier to port a target’s number to their phone.

A user gaining access to corporate resources on a risky or compromised device in the hands of an employee is equally as detrimental to an organization as unauthorized access through other means.
