MFA and Passkeys
Passwords alone are no longer enough — and Multi-Factor Authentication, while widely used, has weaknesses that cybercriminals are learning to exploit. Our MFA and Passkeys course gives your workforce a practical understanding of how authentication works in real organisations and how newer approaches like passkeys are changing the landscape.
This course looks at why MFA became the default security standard, where it can fail due to human behaviour, and how passkeys aim to reduce our reliance on passwords and individual judgement.
What's covered in this course:
- What authentication and Multi-Factor Authentication are
- Why MFA is widely used in business systems
- The common MFA weaknesses linked to human behaviour
- What passkeys are and how they work
- How passwordless approaches fit within business security strategies

Most cyberattacks succeed because of people, not technology
Firewalls and software can only go so far. The weakest link in any organisation's security is human behaviour — a clicked phishing link, a weak password, a lost device. Equipping your team with the right knowledge is the most effective action your organisation can take to reduce risk.
