Context
Requiring Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enhances the security of GitHub organizations by adding an extra layer of protection against account compromise. Password-only authentication poses risks, as compromised credentials can expose repositories to malicious code, data theft, or other unauthorized actions. Enforcing MFA mitigates these risks, ensuring that even if a password is stolen, unauthorized access is significantly more difficult.
Description
This check ensures that all members of a GitHub organization are required to enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for their accounts. By implementing this requirement, organizations can enforce higher security standards, protecting repositories and sensitive data from unauthorized access and potential compromise due to credential theft.
