The Okta Dashboard application must be configured to use multifactor authentication.

To ensure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, nonprivileged users must use multifactor authentication to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system.

Multifactor authentication uses two or more factors to achieve authentication.

Factors include: (i) Something you know (e.g., password/PIN); (ii) Something you have (e.g., cryptographic identification device, token); or (iii) Something you are (e.g., biometric).

A nonprivileged account is any information system account with authorizations of a nonprivileged user.

Network access is any access to an application by a user (or process acting on behalf of a user) where the access is obtained through a network connection.

Applications integrating with the DoW Active Directory and using the DoW CAC are examples of compliant multifactor authentication solutions.
