Salesforce’s deadline for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is the start of February.

We previously announced that Salesforce will require Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to increase the security and protection for users. We’d like to remind you that the deadline to have MFA enabled is 1 February 2022.

MFA is one of the most effective tools for enhancing login security and safeguarding your data and business. A 2019 report from Microsoft concluded that MFA blocks 99.9% of all automated attacks. As Salesforce is a tool often used to store consumer information and personal data, this enforced requirement makes perfect sense from a security perspective.

Salesforce recommend using their MFA Assistant under Setup for step-by-step guidance.
