Podcast: Why your RIA should use Microsoft Authenticator instead of Text or SMS for Multi-Factor Authentication

Why your RIA should use Microsoft Authenticator instead of Text or SMS for Multi Factor Authentication

If your RIA is using text or SMS messages for your multi-factor authentication, you’re not using the most secure option. In this short podcast, we discuss why RIAs should move away from text and SMS and towards more apps like Microsoft Authenticator. Hackers have the ability to intercept text messages which means they can also get past the multi-factor authentication you have in place to access your apps and data.

You can learn more about the growing risks of text and SMS messaging in our blog 5 Reasons to move away from text message authentication for multi-factor authentication
