Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a security enhancement for traditional password-based logins, requiring a second authentication factor to bolster account security without significantly burdening users. It is widely adopted in both professional and personal spheres, with its importance highlighted by security concerns when configurations change, such as X's (formerly Twitter) discontinuation of SMS-based 2FA for non-paying users. While 2FA and multi-factor authentication (MFA) are often conflated, 2FA specifically uses two authentication factors, whereas MFA can involve more. Despite its security benefits, 2FA is less robust than some MFA deployments and may incur higher resource costs for enterprises. Implementing 2FA in digital environments necessitates selecting appropriate methods, preparing users, securing infrastructure, and designing interfaces for seamless adoption. Descope offers a no-code platform to simplify the integration of 2FA into applications, enhancing user experience and security by connecting with fraud detection services and allowing flexible authentication methods.
