BIO-key to Demonstrate Advances in Mobile Multifactor Authentication at Mobile World Congress - Seite 2

"Consumers are constantly being asked to authenticate to the many and varied services they access on their mobile devices. At the same time, it has become difficult for SPs to provide easy and frictionless access to these services, which have varying degrees of security requirements. SPs wish to adopt stronger, more secure authentication using newer types of authentication capabilities such as biometrics and token based authentication. However, the onslaught of the variety and forms of authentication factors becoming available leads to complex requirements on the user device and at the SP," said Jim Nolan, Executive Vice President, InterDigital Solutions. "InterDigital's MFAS architecture aims to provide consumers with a seamless and secure authentication experience, and provides SPs with an easy to access and dynamic granular authentication capability that may be matched to the risk associated with the service being provided."
