Multi-Factor Authentication: The Cheapest Security Win

If you do only one thing to protect your business accounts this year, make it multi-factor authentication. It adds a second step — a code or a tap on your phone — so a stolen password alone is no longer enough to get in. It's free on nearly every service, and it stops the most common attack there is.

Where to turn it on first

• Email — it's the master key that resets everything else.
• Banking, payroll, and payment accounts.
• Your website, hosting, and domain registrar.
• Anything storing customer data.

Use an app, not text messages

Prefer an authenticator app or a hardware key over SMS codes where you can — text messages can be intercepted or redirected. It's a small upgrade that meaningfully raises the bar.
