MFA Fatigue Attack

« Back to Glossary Index

An MFA fatigue attack bombards a user with repeated MFA push notifications hoping they’ll approve one out of annoyance, confusion, or accident.

Why it matters:

  • A top tactic in major breaches.
  • Exploits human behavior rather than technical flaws.

Pro tip: If you’re spammed with MFA prompts, deny them all and report it — it means someone has your password.
