Multi-Love Factor Authentication — Cybersketch

The 3rd principle of Zero Trust Security is verifying explicitly.

It’s not about providing one-off access anymore based on just passwords.

Multi-factor authentication has become the norm, but few understand its true meaning.

The multi-love factor authentication may look like the one below.

Using passwords with PIN does not provide multi-factor authentication as they belong to the same category, which is “something you know”.

The best way is to pick one factor from each category, such as a password (something you know) + fingerprint ((something you are) + pattern (something you do) or location (somewhere you are).
