Beating MFA Fatigue and AI-Driven Attacks with DirectDefense

One of the big trends with threat actors over the past year is a rise in multi-factor authentication (MFA) attacks. Attackers have turned to increased sophistication using a variety of techniques. Some of these are tried and true favorites like MFA fatigue and SIM swapping. But Jim Broome, president and CTO, DirectDefense points out that increasingly threat actors turn to generative AI tools to help sell phishing schemes. Organizations can’t stand still with MFA. These solutions need regular auditing to look for weak spots in process and technology.
