The necessary privacy of a client ID and secret passcode is becoming difficult nowadays to secure our most sensitive data. Phishing, malware, and trojan virus are some of the most occurred security threats, to overcome these, we will need to keep our authentication layers to be more secured. This research paper supports Multi-factor authentication due to its more secured layer features and functionality compared to that of Single factor authentication. Security teams have the option to select between two authentications factors: · Single-factor authentication · Multi-factor authentication Choosing what's best for your company requires careful thought of the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. The two are not fundamentally unrelated; you can have both or one can be used. Multifactor authentication uses a strategy of two or more levels of authentication evidence to prove the identification of a user trying to access a system that includes password, OTP (One-time-password), data of birth, etc. Single-factor authentication uses only single evidence of authentication to prove the identification of the user, and it does not have multiple levels, unlike multifactor authentication. Entering a user password is one of the examples of single-factor authentication RESEARCH PROJECT Access Control Select a topic of your choosing in the area of Access Control and write a research paper as part of a group project.
