I agree with Nancey, it makes sense to have 2 factors for extra security

Sure! With MFA, you usually need something you know (like a password) and something you have (like a phone)

Haha, I bet the test writers tried to make this one a bit tricky. But I'm pretty sure the answer is B) 2 factors. Anything more would just be overkill, in my opinion.

No need for overkill with 3 or 4 factors, B) 2 is the way to go.

I agree with Gearldine. The whole point of MFA is to make it harder for someone to gain unauthorized access, so two factors make sense. I don't think they'd ask for more than that on an exam.

Well, based on my understanding, Azure AD MFA requires two factors for authentication. It's supposed to be something you know, like a password, and something you have, like a mobile device or a security key.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I know that Azure AD MFA is all about adding an extra layer of security, but I'm not sure how many factors are required exactly. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
