In the past, people stored data and information either locally on their work computer, or on a network server. These items were blocked from outside access, so the only way to gain access was internally. However, with the internet and remote offices being established, people began connecting to work servers from all different locations. This presented a security issue, because of weak log-in requirements which could be easy to hack. One way organizations can fix this problem is by using two factor authentication.
Prevent Unauthorized Access to Cloud Environments with Two Factor Authentication
More organizations are starting to take advantage of their remote offices being spread around the globe. They can draw on talent from the different locations to create work teams to accomplish different projects. Because everyone is in a different location, sharing work and information is resolved by using cloud environments. However, because these environments are kept online, it is important to use two factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access.
