Why MFA Matters
In the digital age, security is paramount. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) has emerged as a critical defense against cyber threats. According to Saudi Aramco’s third-party cybersecurity standard, MFA must be enforced on all remote access to third-party computing resources, including internet access.
Understanding TPC-4
The Aramco Third Party Cybersecurity Controls Guideline (TPC-4) under Access Control (AC) stipulates that:
- Multi-factor authentication must be enforced for all remote access.
- Technical checks should confirm the implementation of strong authentication, with clear evidence provided.
- Policies and procedures related to remote users’ access policy must be available.
How to Enforce MFA for Remote Access
- Choose Your MFA Method : Select a reliable method such as biometrics, one-time passwords (OTP), or hardware tokens.
- Implement MFA : Integrate the chosen MFA solution with your remote access systems.
- Test and Monitor : Regularly test and monitor your MFA implementation to ensure it’s working correctly.
