A user is only granted access after successfully presenting two (2FA) or more (MFA) pieces of evidence (factors), proving their identity to an authentication mechanism.

Risk-based Authentication

Risk-based authentication (RBA) is a dynamic feature of AuthControl Sentry. Based on parameters set in the policy engine, RBA will request the appropriate level of authentication to access applications based on the user, their device and the application.
