MFA for Fortinet FortiMail is an extra layer of security to ensure only the intended users can gain access. Fortinet FortiMail MFA requires the user to go through both primary (login/password) and secondary (e.g., Mobile Push) authentication. This means that even if a cybercriminal knows a user’s password, they will not be able to gain access without completing the second step of authentication.
