WHY

2FA for Active Directory?

  • Over 80% of breaches involve compromised credentials. Traditional passwords are insufficient against sophisticated cyberattacks like phishing and credential stuffing.
  • Microsoft Security Signals Report 2024 indicates that accounts with Active Directory two factor authentication are 99.9% less likely to be compromised than those relying solely on passwords.
  • Active Directory 2FA has become a baseline security requirement, not optional, for protecting enterprise identity management systems.

How does ADSelfService Plus 2FA secure AD?

  • Prevents unauthorized access: Active Directory two factor authentication makes stolen credentials useless by requiring a second authentication factor beyond passwords.
  • Protects critical resources: Secures endpoints, servers, VPN gateways, email services, and Active Directory 2FA-integrated applications safeguarding business data.
  • Adaptive security: Risk-based policies enforce stricter authentication for high-risk scenarios like remote access, privileged accounts, or suspicious locations.
