Authentication Suite
Sometimes authentication needs to be active; sometimes it needs to be passive. It all depends. Callsign allows you to use the right multi-factor authentication technology for every user journey, every time.
Multi-factor authentication
There are as many ways to authenticate people as there are people.
And those people want their transactions and user journeys to be smooth, unintrusive, passive. Callsign’s range of advanced mobile and web authenticators ensures that’s the case.
Too good to be true?
The numbers speak for themselves. Callsign’s Authentication Suite not only takes the heavy lifting out of the authentication process, but it’s also been proven to reduce friction and costs.
SCA Assurance
Passwords and PINs are still the most common authenticators used by many organizations. But they’re easily compromised, and the secret questions that underpin them can be obtained via social engineering. But passwords and PINs can still play a role, as long as they’re supported by other forms of authentication.
Whilst we can offer traditional knowledge-based authenticators such as PIN and password, we always recommend layering these with inherence-based attributes such as keystroke dynamics to guarantee the appropriate level of protection.
Possession is where the cookies crumble. Like hard tokens, cookies are outmoded posession factors. Devices and tokens can be stolen; and bad actors are increasingly using software simulations to bypass conventional security.
But that won't get them past Callsign’s security. Our best-in-market device fingerprinting does away with expensive SMS OTPs or stale cookies, and can detect and deter rooted or jailbroken devices, or emulations – no matter how sophisticated.
The vital third authentication factor, inherence requires something unique to the user.
And Callsign is unique in that we positively identify the user, a method that preserves privacy whilst providing unmatched security. This is achieved by analyzing not what a user types or taps, but how: the way they swipe, the way they type, even how they hold their device.
Combined, these factors add up to a secure and frictionless authentication experience for genuine users – and a genuine headache for bad actors.
