What is multi-factor authentication and how does it work with Auth0?

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds an extra layer of security by requiring two or more verification methods. With Auth0, it can include something you know (like a password) and something you have (like a mobile device).

Why should I use multi-factor authentication for my application?

Using MFA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, as it requires multiple forms of verification, making it harder for attackers.

What types of factors can I use with Auth0 for MFA?

Auth0 supports various factors, including SMS codes, email links, authenticator apps, and biometric verification.

Is it difficult to implement multi-factor authentication with Auth0?

Not at all! Auth0 provides easy-to-follow documentation and SDKs to help you integrate MFA into your application seamlessly.

Can I customize the MFA experience for my users?
