Authentication Methods
Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
Multifactor authentication requires that a user must provide at least two ways that they are whom they say they are.
2-step Verification
2-Step verification is a means of using a soft token to check that a sign-in request is authentication. It works on the following lines.
- User registers a trusted contact method with the app, for example using an email, phone call, phone text, mobile device application, token provider device, or a hardware key.
- User logs on the application-typically with a username and password
- The user then will be redirected to another page which will request a mixture of numbers or letters that th euser must put in.
