What is the most effective measure an individual can take to significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized access to their personal accounts, even if their password is stolen or compromised?
✓ Correct Answer: Option B
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds an essential layer of security by requiring a second form of verification (e.g., a code from a phone, a fingerprint) in addition to a password, making it much harder for attackers to gain access even if they know the password.
