CISA just dropped a bombshell. In its latest alert (dated July 25, 2025), the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency is now urging every enterprise to implement phishing-resistant multifactor authentication (MFA)—everywhere: for email, VPNs, and anything touching critical systems. Not “consider it.” Not “evaluate in the future.” Require it. Now.
Let’s be clear. This is not just a best practice. It’s a red-alert, top-priority, DEFCON-level warning from our own federal cyber defense team.
And if you’re still relying on SMS codes, authenticator apps, push approvals, or app-based 2FA, here’s what CISA is really saying:
Those systems are broken.
Why? Because attackers aren’t breaking in—they’re logging in.
Real-time phishing, MFA fatigue, spoofed login portals, and deepfake support calls are now the standard playbook for attackers like Scattered Spider. These social engineering campaigns can bypass legacy MFA in seconds.
Token’s biometric authenticators—Token Ring and Token BioStick—are built exactly for this moment. This threat. This escalation.
They deliver true phishing-proof security by combining:
Even if an attacker has a password, a spoofed site, or physical possession of the device—they get nothing without the authorized fingerprint and the exact domain match and proximity to the endpoint.
That’s what CISA means by “phishing-resistant MFA.” That’s exactly what Token delivers.
And guess what? Enterprises like Aflac, Qantas, and Ingram Micro just learned this lesson the hard way. Their outdated MFA systems let attackers in. Token would have stopped them cold.
Let’s not wait for another breach, or a $380 million lawsuit like Clorox’s—to admit the obvious:
It’s time to deploy authentication that attackers can’t bypass, spoof, phish, or relay.
The U.S. Government has spoken.
Now it’s your move. Request a demo.
No Token. No Entry.
