Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) — Question 63

Why is it important to implement MFA inside of an organization?

Answer options

• A. To prevent brute force attacks from being successful.
• B. To prevent phishing attacks from being successful.
• C. To prevent DoS attacks from being successful.
• D. To prevent man-in-the-middle attacks from being successful.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because implementing MFA adds an additional layer of security that makes it much harder for attackers to gain unauthorized access, even if they have the correct password. The other options focus on different types of attacks that MFA specifically does not address as directly as brute force attacks.
