What is Phishing-Resistant MFA? A Plain-Language Guide
August 09, 2026 •
Quick answer: Phishing-resistant MFA is a category of multi-factor authentication that uses cryptographic binding between your device and a specific website or server. Because the credential is mathematically tied to the legitimate domain, attackers cannot intercept or replay it on a fake site. FIDO2/passkeys and certificate-based authentication (CBA) are the two methods that currently qualify. […]

MFA Integration with Active Directory: The Non-Invasive Approach
May 11, 2026 •
If you manage a Windows environment, Active Directory (AD) is almost certainly the backbone of your identity infrastructure.
