DynaPass Authentication Glossary


Authentication

Authentication or User Authentication is the process of verifying a users identity. A simple authentication, for example, can be a logging into one’s email which requires a static username and password. A stronger method of authentication is two-factor or multi-factor authentication, which may use a standard ID and password in addition to a second factor, such as a security token or biometric factor such as a fingerprint.
