Women in cybersecurity are advancing multi-factor authentication (MFA) by integrating biometrics, hardware tokens, and location-based factors to enhance both security and user experience. These next-generation authentication methods form a multi-layered security strategy, significantly reducing the risk of phishing attacks. Biometrics like facial recognition and fingerprints provide seamless identity verification, while hardware tokens add a physical layer of security. Location-based factors further strengthen defense by ensuring users are in expected locations. This approach creates a context-aware, user-friendly defense system that improves security without compromising ease of use, helping organizations better protect sensitive information from evolving cyber threats.
