WASHINGTON – The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is announcing a collaborative effort with industry to dramatically increase adoption of multifactor authentication (MFA) and ensure widespread understanding of why it is one of the strongest tools to prevent cyber intrusions.  Launching at the 2022 RSA Conference, CISA is embarking on a campaign to encourage widespread awareness and understanding of the benefits of MFA to ensure that every American knows the simple steps they can take to keep themselves safe online and to urge technology companies to make MFA available as a default option. CISA’s More Than a Password campaign includes a newly launched webpage with resources, how-to guides, and social media content throughout the month of June.
