Regulatory Compliance Standards

Regulations that typically require the implementation of multi-factor authentication include:

  1. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR): GDPR is a regulation enacted by the European Union to protect the data privacy of European citizens. The regulation requires businesses in the EU or those that process personal data of EU residents to implement measures to secure their data. MFA is one of the recommended measures.

  2. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidelines: NIST guidelines recommend that login access to sensitive areas must require more than just a password. MFA is a requirement for many business practices, including IT systems access, email access, and remote access protocols.

  3. Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS): PCI DSS is a regulatory standard that payment cardholders and merchants must follow. The standard mandates security features that businesses must implement to ensure payment information security. MFA is one of the recommended security features.

Steps to Ensure Compliance

To ensure compliance with regulatory standards, businesses must take the following steps:

Determine Which Regulations Apply

Identify which regulatory compliance standards apply to your business. This can be achieved through working with a compliance consultant or legal professional.

Develop an MFA Policy

Develop an MFA policy with the requirements appropriate for your business.

Train Employees

Train employees on MFA policies and procedures. This can be in the form of virtual training sessions, workshops or training webinars to ensure that everyone within the company has the required knowledge and is following the policies in place.

Test the MFA System

Periodically test the MFA system to ensure that it adheres to your business's MFA policies.

Address Any Non-Compliance

If your business is not compliant, take action to address any issues immediately. Depending on the severity of the violation, this may include making updates to policies and procedures or discontinuing use of certain systems.

Current Trends

Zero Trust

As regulatory compliance standards continue to evolve, MFA will need to adapt to comply with them. One current trend is the push towards Zero Trust Architecture, which assumes that every user and device on a network is a potential threat, requiring MFA for every access attempt.

SurePassID's adaptive and continuous authentication policies make it easy to verify user identities across all environments, whether you're using SurePassID or any third-party MFA. By constantly monitoring the network's critical assets, users, services, and data, you have the power to prioritize and create customized security policies that truly protect your organization. With SurePassID, you can rest easy knowing that your user identities are continuously verified and your data is always secure.
