Multifactor Authentication™
Identify authentication for online transactions
Multifactor Authentication, offered through a strategic partnership with RSA, protects bank customers from online predators by requiring multiple pieces of information to validate identity while supporting compliance with regulatory requirements and FFIEC recommendations. This state-of-the-art security solution deters predators who commit fraud and identity theft by exploiting single-factor authentication – which uses only one piece of information, such as a password – to validate identity. Multifactor Authentication automatically monitors accounts for unusual activity based on account history and requires customers to verify their identities by answering pre-selected challenge questions if unusual activity is detected. An optional module allows customers to select from a library of images that can be displayed upon log-in to further verify that they are connected to a bank’s legitimate website rather than a fraudulent copycat site.
This solution is available to banks automated by the SilverLake System®, CIF 20/20®, and Core Director® platforms.
