Multi-factor authentication (MFA) fatigue attack is a type of cyber attack where an attacker overloads a target with authentication requests to a system that employs MFA. The goal is to cause the user to become overwhelmed or fatigued by the constant requests, leading them to approve a request out of frustration or misunderstanding, potentially granting the attacker access to their account or system.
