💼 [IAM.6] Hardware MFA should be enabled for the root user

• ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/iam/06

Description

Virtual MFA might not provide the same level of security as hardware MFA devices. We recommend that you use a virtual MFA device only while you wait for hardware purchase approval or for your hardware to arrive.
