Enforcing password changes? That's like making your users change their underwear every day - it's just not practical or effective.

Multi-factor authentication is like having a bodyguard for your account - even if the password gets out, the bodyguard ain't letting anyone in without proper ID.

Password encryption? That's like putting a bandaid on a broken leg. MFA is the real deal when it comes to reducing account compromise risk.

Enforcing password changes? That's so 2000s. Why bother when you can just have MFA and call it a day? It's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Role-based authentication is great, but it doesn't protect against account compromise on its own. You need that extra layer of MFA to really lock things down.

Multi-factor authentication is the way to go! It's like having a super-powered lock on your account - even if someone steals your password, they can't get in without that extra step.
