Two factor authentication, or 2FA, can be used with any type of system where users must enter a user name and password. You can use this authentication method in-house whenever an employee logs into their computer and connects to your network. You can also add additional layers of security with this authentication process. For example, you can require users to provide the correct two factor authentication certificate when they want to access online applications or network storage locations.
You Can Create and Distribute Multiple 2FA Certificates
It is possible for you to create and distribute multiple 2FA certificates to your employees. They could have one certificate that they use when they log onto your network. They could have a second certificate they need to provide in order to access the internet. Specific employees could even have three, four, or more certificates required to access sensitive information, such as payroll data, employee records, and financial data.
