Zoom Video Communications has introduced a two-factor authentication (2FA) to secure users and prevent security breaches on the platform.
Users will be required to provide two or more pieces of credentials that authenticate their ownership of the account. For example, something the user knows (a password or pin), something the user owns (a smart card or mobile device), or something the user has (fingerprints, voice).
“Implementing 2FA helps organizations meet compliance obligations for sensitive data and customer information. For small businesses and schools, it can be expensive to pay for an SSO service. Zoom’s 2FA provides a free and effective way to validate users and protect against security breaches,” the company said in a statement on September 10.
