Businesses can purchase additional authentication functionality with the LastPass MFA package , which adds an extra layer of security to their VPN , workstations , identity providers , or cloud applications . To empower admins to configure MFA to meet the needs of their organisation , LastPass is consolidating the separate LastPass MFA mobile app into the enhanced Authenticator mobile app . As a result , admins will now only need to require one authentication option to meet a range of their organisations security needs .
