What is the primary purpose of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) ?

  • A.To create stronger passwords
  • B.To prevent data encryption
  • C.To verify the identity of a user through multiple methods
  • D.To improve network performance

Answer: C

MFA's primary purpose is to verify the identity of a user through multiple methods.

Multi-factor authentication requires two or more independent proofs of identity: something you know (a password), something you have (a phone or token) and something you are (a fingerprint). A stolen password alone is then not enough.

It does not create stronger passwords, it has nothing to do with preventing encryption, and it is not meant to improve network performance.
