How Does MFA Work for Websites Using Multi-Factor Authentication?

Hi everyone, I’ve been working on setting up multi-factor authentication (MFA) for a website, and I wanted to understand how it works when integrated with a specific platform that supports MFA. From what I know, it adds an extra layer of security, but I’m curious about the specific steps involved in the authentication process. How does MFA verify the user after the first password entry? Does it involve any specific protocols, or is it just a matter of generating a time-based token? I’d love to hear your experiences with setting up MFA for your sites and any tips or best practices you might have for configuring it effectively.
