3rd generation user authentication

2. Why Stronger Authentication?
Simply because passwords are weak!
» Hackers preferred weapon 76% of network intrusions
exploited weak or stolen credentials (passwords)*
» You might already be a victim 66% of breaches took months or
years to discover*
» The small organizations cannot hide 31%of all targeted
attacks were aimed at businesses with less than 250
employees**
» The threat is only getting bigger - Cybercrime is the fastest
growing crime type in the world and targeted attacks grew by
62% from 2013 to 2014***
* Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report 2013
** Internet Security Threat Report 2013 (published by Symantec)
*** Internet Security Threat Report 2014 (published by Symantec)

3. Why Stronger Authentication?
» We are already patching up, scanning and testing etc.
» Companies often put a great effort into updating,
patching, vulnerability testing etc.,
» but this way you only seal the windows, close the shutters
and the cat’s door…
» and if the wrong guy has a valid set of credentials, and
you do not have MFA, he walks in through the main
entrance…
» even without anyone discovering it! – So you might be
attacked without knowing!

4. Stronger Authentication in 2014
» Today a password is not enough to ensure your
online identity, because it can be compromised in
many ways (key logged phished, bought, guessed
etc.)
» Therefore the providers of online services like
banking, e-mail, gaming, social media etc. now all
force or allow you to step up authentication
» And since almost everybody has a mobile phone,
the providers use SMS/Text for validation
» A user-friendly way of enabling Multi-Factor
Authentication on a global scale

6. The Evolution of Authentication
Technology
1st Generation 2nd Generation 3rd Generation
80-90’s
Hardware Tokens
+ Introduction of two-factor auth.
÷ High cost on tokens
÷ Distribution & administration cost
÷ An extra thing to carry
00’s
Mobile based solutions
+ Real-time multi-factor auth.
+ No hardware distribution
÷ Deployment of soft tokens / apps
÷ Regional SMS delivery challenges
Now
Adaptive User Authentication
+ Contextual intelligence layer
+ Policy-based trusted IPs
+ Multiple OTP options
+ Location aware dispatching
Our Heritage:
• Always been based on SMS, Always been real-time, Always been session based, No client software

7. Two-factor vs. Multi-factor Authentication
» Two-factor Authentication (2FA) is merely
» Something you Know
» Something you Have (Token, Card, Finger, Phone etc.)
» Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) simply adds more factors
» Your Connection (unique session identification)
» Your Location (Geographically)
» The Role/Rights you have (Group member i.e. consultant, employee)
» A valid Gateway/Point of entry
» Time of day (doors are open only between i.e. 8am and 10pm) etc.
Basic security:
Protects against 90’ies threats (key
loggers, guessed/ cracked/ bought/
borrowed passwords etc.) Plus - users
feel that their identity is protected.
Higher security:
Protection against also more modern
threats like Advanced malware, Session
hijacking, Phishing, Pharming, Man-in-the-
middle attacks etc.
New flexibility:
Access may now be controlled based on
i.e. Countries, IP-ranges, “Trusted
locations”, Time frames, Roles, Groups
and other factors.
