A Practical Path to MFA – How to Secure Every Single Account, One Step at a Time
Although multi-factor authentication (MFA) is at the top of the NACo cybersecurity priorities and best practices list, many counties find that MFA implementation is not straightforward.

There is a lot to consider, including selecting the right authentication methods to keep your county secure, while making sure employees, suppliers and citizens will use them.
Watch this webinar for a practical discussion on the path to go from passwords to MFA on every single account. Our panel will discuss:
- How to assess your current strategy and create an implementation plan
- Why stronger password controls may be a good starting point
- Why a communication strategy is essential to help with user adoption
- How to reduce time, costs and workload during implementation
So, whether you’re just starting to think about MFA or have already started implementation, this is a discussion you won’t want to miss.
