💡 FACT OF THE WEEK
We regularly hear questions about MFA and how effective it is at preventing breaches.
These startling statistics highlight how crucial and effective MFA is:
There are over 300 million fraudulent sign-in attempts to Microsoft’s cloud services every single day.
MFA can block 99.9% of account compromise attacks.
This means that, out of 300 million attacks, only 30,000 are likely to bypass MFA — of course, other security features can work in tandem with MFA to bring this number even lower.
In short, you need to be using MFA!
