EAA & MFA

 

Enterprise Application Access

Akamai Enterprise Application Access is a Zero Trust Network Access solution offering precise access to private applications, based on identity and context. It uses identity-based policies and real-time data such as user location, time, and device security to ensure that users’ only have access to the applications they need and eliminates network level access. It works seamlessly with Akamai MFA for strong user authentication.

 

Akamai MFA

Eighty percent of reported security breaches involve compromised user credentials or poor password hygiene. These vulnerabilities can result in account takeovers that allow attackers to obtain initial access, then move laterally to discover and exfiltrate data.
Adding multi-factor authentication (MFA) as an additional login security layer significantly reduces risk, but many of today’s MFA solutions have significant security flaws. Current second-factor authentication methods can easily be manipulated by attackers and bypassed using simple phishing or social engineering techniques.
