Dear Members,

Please see the following information and offerings:

MEMBER EXPERIENCE

Multi-Factor Authentication

On 18 August, ISACA will launch multi-factor authentication (MFA) as an optional layer of login security. MFA requires two or more verification methods (factors) to prove a user’s identity before logging in, which makes it difficult for a bad actor to gain access to the account:

  • Something the user knows—the username and password.
  • Something the user has—such as an authentication app on a mobile device

How to opt-in for MFA

Users may choose to opt-in for MFA by logging into isaca.org/myisaca, selecting “Security” from the left menu, ticking the “Enable Multi Factor Authentication” box, and confirming. After opting in, MFA will add a small, extra step to MyISACA login. Contact https://support.isaca.org, if assistance is needed.

REFER AND EARN! – MEMBER GET A MEMBER (MGAM)

Help grow the ISACA community, and your chapter, through the MGAM program, which runs August through December. Those you refer must enter your ISACA Member ID number when joining, which you can locate by logging into isaca.org/myisaca and selecting the Membership Status tab or by contacting support.isaca.org. Prizes for referrals have been increased this year: 1 Member = US $35; 2-4 Members = US $50; 5-7 Members = US $200; 8-10 Members = US $350; 11+ Members = US $500.
