Enabling multifactor authentication
Multifactor authentication uses at least two sources of verification to gain access to a resource. It is commonly used for activities like bank sign-ins and VPN access and can help you to align with your existing Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies.
NetBackup and NetBackup appliances provide multifactor authentication, which uses time-based one-time passwords to provide secure authentication.
You can also use single sign-on (SSO) and configure multifactor authentication through the SSO identity provider (IDP), or you can authenticate with smart cards or digital certificates.
