Overview of MFA for Fortinet FortiGate SSL VPN

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for Fortinet FortiGate SSL VPN adds an extra layer of security by requiring two forms of authentication. First, users must enter their Active Directory or RADIUS username and password. After this, they must complete a secondary authentication step using a supported method, such as a Mobile Push or Email Link. Once both steps are completed, access to the VPN is granted. Enabling MFA enhances security and helps prevent unauthorized access by malicious actors using stolen credentials.

Rublon introduces Multi-Factor Authentication in a number of ways.
