Why MFA, why now?
A discussion with Okta and Salesforce on the new MFA requirement


In the last year, we’ve seen a growing number of organizations have required Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) be implemented to remain compliant and accessible.
Salesforce is the latest to require an MFA solution, or their own homegrown solution enabled for uninterrupted access. These events are reiterating the importance of having a scalable IAM strategy in place.
