On May 19th, 2022 our legacy systems (existing email/txt 2FA/MFA) will be shut down and all ExchangeDefender services will rely on oAuth for authentication. Clients will not see a major difference and will login the same way they always have at [https://admin.exchangedefender.com](https://admin.exchangedefender.com/): [![](https://storage.services.exchangedefender.network/exchangedefender-blog/blog/2022/05/4-1024x729.png)](https://storage.services.exchangedefender.network/exchangedefender-blog/blog/2022/05/4.png) The new authorization backend will help improve the security of all users that rely on ExchangeDefender to keep them safe: better password policies, no need to reauthenticate every time you visit our services, support for hardware authentication devices and tokens, support for software authentication such as Google/Microsoft/Authy authenticator solutions, and a lot more. The era where someone can get access to all your data just by guessing or hacking your password is coming to an end. More importantly, industry standards and cybersecurity insurance underwriters are requiring 2FA/MFA and this is a huge opportunity for our partners to deploy a more secure access to the arguably most insecure and public endpoint in every organization: email. #### We look forward to keeping all your data secure and your users safe from dangerous email exploits.
