To strengthen KBR information security and safeguard company data, Information Technology has implemented two-factor authentication for remote access. Two-factor authentication (2FA) provides identification of users by pairing two different components for enhanced security, to protect access to networks and websites. These components may be something the user has (a security code), and something the user knows (a password).
