Silent MFA

When using XFA as an extra factor to your identity provider, you don't use the security of a second factor.

Our new MFA feature can be easily enabled on an integrations through the XFA dashboard. Once it is enabled users will be asked to trust their device, a first device needs to be confirmed through an email link, a next device needs to be confirmed by an already enrolled device. Once devices are trusted, the user will not be asked for a second factor anymore, but the device will inherently act as a second factor.

When a user authenticates with OneLogin, as an additional factor after supplying a username & password, the user is redirected to XFA to verify that the device is compliant with the device security policy before authenticating the user. This assures that only devices that comply with the security policy are allowed access.
