Phishing attacks and account takeovers are on the rise, yet not all types of multi-factor authentication (MFA) are up to the task of preventing modern phishing attacks. Similar to usernames and passwords, mobile-based authentication such as SMS, one-time passcode (OTP), and push notifications also rely on ‘shared secrets’ that can be breached by phishing, malware, SIM swapping, and man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacks. In this session, discover how organizations can prevent account takeovers, while also ensuring a seamless, passwordless login experience for users.
Attendees will learn:
– Mobile authentication misconceptions
– How modern phishing defeats basic MFA
– How the YubiKey offers phishing-resistant MFA to stop account takeovers, reduce costs, and drive employee productivity.
