Users Without MFA

Overview

The "Users Without MFA" widget highlights users who have not enabled Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) on their accounts. This is a security concern, as MFA adds an additional layer of protection that helps prevent unauthorized access, even if a password is compromised.

Why It Matters

For IT Engineers:

1. Access Security:

   • Identifies users who are relying only on passwords for authentication, which can be compromised.

2. Visibility:

   • Provides a clear view of users without MFA, enabling IT teams to prioritize enforcement of MFA across the organization.

3. Policy Enforcement:

   • Assists in tracking users who need to comply with the organization’s MFA policies.

For Security Engineers:

1. Risk Mitigation:

   • Ensures that all accounts, particularly those with elevated access, have MFA enabled, significantly reducing the risk of credential-based attacks.

2. Compliance:

   • Enforces compliance with security standards that require MFA for sensitive systems and users.

3. Security Strengthening:

   • Flags users without MFA, ensuring that security is strengthened across all accounts, especially those accessing critical systems.
