Google will require multifactor authentication (MFA) for all Google Cloud users who authenticate with passwords by the end of 2025 through a three-phase rollout: awareness and planning, enforcement for new and existing password users, and MFA for federated identities. The company will surface guidance across Cloud Console, Firebase, gCloud, and related platforms; the report notes similar mandates from AWS, Microsoft, and Snowflake and cautions that MFA greatly reduces risk but is not immune to phishing, so phishing-resistant solutions are advised.
