PowerStoreOS 3.5 and later allows users to implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) through RSA SecurID. MFA, which is also known as advanced or two-factor authentication, provides an additional layer of security when logging in or performing transactions on the PowerStore system. MFA provides many advantages including: increasing the security of accounts and data against hackers, mitigating the risk of poor password practices, and helping users stay compliant with regulations. It can be used with both local and LDAP user accounts for PowerStore.
