Identity authentication - Mailcomms Group

Authentication is “the electronic process that makes possible the electronic identification of a natural or legal person, or the origin and integrity of data in electronic format”. This is defined in Article 3.5 of the eIDAS Regulation.

After verifying your customer’s identity, it is necessary to enable secure access to platforms and systems for them to interact with them, while protecting their information, transactions and privacy. Authentication with guarantees further reinforces the security of your company and that of the legitimate customer. It thus plays a key role in preventing fraud.

Our authentication tool uses several of these factors, combined according to the characteristics of each process:

Inherence (what is): something that is the user. It is a biometric factor impossible to forge like the face (facial recognition) or fingerprints.
Knowledge (what is known): something known only to the user, such as a PIN or password.
Possession (what one has): something that only the user possesses. For example, the phone to receive an OTP (One Time Password) or a security token.

AUTHENTICATION PROCESS, STEP BY STEP

Select one or more of the factors you want to use during the authentication process:

Password.
Security questions with pre-defined answers.
One-time password (OTP). The customer enters the code received by SMS or PUSH app notification to the cell phone or email.
Biometrics: the most secure form of authentication. Biometric data are very difficult to falsify.
Qualified electronic certificate.

In cases of multiple factor selection, the practitioner will have to prioritize which factor to apply first. Our tool and our technical team then builds the customized process.
