Learn how Rublon MFA can safeguard your IT systems from Account Takeover (ATO) attacks by implementing phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication using FIDO security keys. By requiring a physical authentication device, Rublon ensures that even if user credentials are compromised through phishing, attackers cannot gain unauthorized access to your systems.
Scenario
An organization needs to protect its IT systems and sensitive data from account takeover attacks, especially those that may result from phishing attempts. Phishing attacks often lead to stolen credentials, which can be used to compromise accounts.
Challenge
Account takeover attacks are increasingly sophisticated, with cybercriminals using phishing techniques to trick employees into revealing their login credentials. Once credentials are compromised, attackers can gain unauthorized access to sensitive systems, leading to data breaches, financial loss, and reputational damage. Traditional password-based security measures are no longer sufficient to prevent such attacks.
Solution
Implement Rublon MFA and enforce using FIDO (Fast Identity Online) security keys for all critical access points within the organization. FIDO keys provide phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication by requiring a physical device that attackers cannot easily replicate or steal, even if they have obtained the user’s password.
Benefits
Rublon MFA with FIDO keys ensures that even if an employee’s credentials are compromised through a phishing attack, the attacker cannot gain access to the organization’s IT systems without the physical FIDO key. This significantly reduces the risk of account takeover attacks.
