Access - Independent MFA for infrastructure applications

Access for Infrastructure now supports independent multi-factor authentication (MFA) for SSH connections using YubiKey PIV keys.

With per-application and per-policy configuration, you can enforce PIV key authentication for sensitive usernames (for example, root ) while applying different requirements for other usernames.
