Student: thank you for your feedback on the usability of Aalto Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
In October you were invited to respond to the follow-up survey on Aalto multifactor authentication (MFA) usability. The survey was open for approximately a month and collected 191 responses.
The open-ended responses to the survey were various and rich in contents, just like in the previous survey. We are really happy and grateful for all your answers; thank you!
