    <br>
    <span>Abstract:</span><br>
    <span>A key step to improving your institution’s
    cybersecurity is to strengthen your defenses. Since multi-factor authentication
    (MFA) can prevent as much as 80-90% of cyberattacks, it is often one of the
    first defenses that are recommended, and often required, for all educational
    institutions to implement.</span><br>
    <br>
    <span>So, what is MFA? Join this discussion to unpack the
    details of this hot cybersecurity topic, including:</span><br>
    <span>• What it is and why it is important to keep your
    institution safe</span><br>
    <span>• When and where you should use it to secure access</span><br>
    <span>• How you can implement it efficiently and
    effectively</span><br>
    <br>
    <span>Whether you have MFA in place or just starting to
    roll it out, this is a discussion you won’t want to miss.</span></span><span></span></p>
