What Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Software Users Told Us: Summer 2022
The users of multi-factor authentication (MFA) software products have spoken. They’ve told us in MFA product reviews what they like, what they dislike, information about their implementations, the price, and more. I’ve analyzed the latest user review data that G2 has for the Multi-Factor Authentication category, which is based on MFA software user reviews through May 31, 2022. I picked the data points that would be of most interest to current MFA users and potential MFA buyers.

Ranking Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Software Based on G2 Reviews
Single-factor authentication, such as inputting a username and password to sign in to an account, is an outdated and insecure method of authenticating a user. Passwords can be and often are hacked and misused. Most modern companies require multi-factor authentication (MFA) to access user or business accounts for increased security. MFA software requires end users to authenticate their identity in two or more ways before granting access.

User Adoption is the Key to Calculating ROI for Security Solutions
The return on investment (ROI) is impossible to calculate for cybersecurity solutions. For such solutions, value isn’t found through dollars saved or deals closed; value is found in unobstructed disaster avoidance and a sense of trust for employees, partners, and customers.

Can Daon support age verification for age-restricted products and services?
Show More

Daon supports multiple age verification methods: AI facial age estimation, document-based verification, data matching, and mDL age capture. The recommended deployment pattern is tiered orchestration rather than a single method. Facial age estimation handles the majority of transactions with low friction. When an estimated age falls within a configurable buffer zone near the threshold, or in situations where regulations require stronger methods, the workflow escalates to full document verification. This approach maximizes throughput for users who are clearly of age while maintaining defensible verification for borderline cases. The solution is COPPA-compliant and supports regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions.

xProof supports mDL capture and data transfer per the ISO/IEC 18013-5 standard, which provides enhanced accuracy over OCR capture and increases the speed and simplicity of the IDV process. With mDLs support for selective disclosure, Daon can also process them for low friction, privacy-first age verification.

How does Daon's facial biometric solution prevent identity fraud?
Show More
Show Less
Facial biometric capture in both xProof and xFace runs two simultaneous and independent defenses. Liveness detection, tested to ISO 30107-3 Levels 1 and 2, confirms the biometric sample comes from a live person at the capture point, defending against printed photos, video playback, masks, and other physical alterations presented to the camera. Injection attack detection defends against a separate and increasingly prevalent threat: synthetic media, including deepfakes, inserted directly into the data stream before it ever reaches the sensor. xProof also has watchlist capability to flag known bad actors and prevent multi-accounting.
