The Authentication Gauntlet

O discovers that enforcing MFA everywhere means authenticating six times just to push a single line of code.

O, a small purple round robot, sits at a desk surrounded by six different phones and devices, each showing an MFA prompt. Cyrus the raccoon stands nearby holding coffee, looking satisfied. O's speech bubble reads 'I just want to push one line.'

Cyrus rolled out MFA across every service. O just wants to fix a typo in the README. Security is a journey, and this journey has six separate authentication checkpoints.
