Introducing Spacelift MFA

Spacelift, a platform that focuses on secure infrastructure management, has added multi-factor authentication (MFA) to enhance security posture. MFA involves using multiple authentication mechanisms when logging into an application and acts as the last line of defense by adding an additional layer of security. This feature is especially important in light of recent security incidents at Okta and Microsoft Azure accounts where hackers accessed systems through phishing techniques. Spacelift's MFA implementation requires users to have a second form of verification, such as one-time passwords, biometric authentication, or hardware security keys, making it more difficult for unauthorized access even if passwords are compromised. Additionally, implementing MFA is cost-effective and helps organizations stay compliant with industry rules and regulations that require protection of sensitive data.
