4 Best Practices for Future-Proofing IBM i MFA

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) systems, while a valuable security measure, are not without vulnerabilities. Phishing attacks, SIM swapping, man-in-the-middle attacks, MFA fatigue, and more can still compromise logins.

Join SEA on October 30th to discover how to future-proof your IBM i MFA systems. We’ll delve into strategies and tactics to enhance IBM i login protection and defend against emerging threats. Topics include:

• Patching IBM i MFA vulnerabilities: Utilizing encryption to bolster MFA security.
• Immunizing logins against phishing: Exploring phishing-resistant MFA and password-less MFA options.
• Integrating MFA into other IBM i functions: Enhancing self-service password resets and emergency authorization solutions.
• Strengthening authentication security: Leveraging hard-to-break MFA verification factors.

All attendees will receive a copy of SEA’s Guide to IBM i Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), an IBM i-specific roadmap and checklist for deploying MFA.
