The Zero Trust security model eliminates implicit trust and enforces strict access control. One of its essential components is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), which verifies identity through multiple methods. However, conventional MFA can be bypassed by sophisticated attackers. This paper explores the integration of Context-Aware MFA (CAMFA) within Zero Trust architectures as a means of enhancing cyber threat mitigation. Through literature review, comparative analysis, and simulated attack scenarios, we demonstrate how CAMFA strengthens security posture and minimizes risk exposure.
