Azure MFA, Follow This Notification Microsoft Multi-Factor Authenticator (MFA) Quick Reference Guide What is Microsoft Multi-Factor Authentication? Shared Health has introduced stronger cyber security protection for how we connect to our systems from outside of the network. This stronger protection is called Microsoft Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). MFA protects you by requesting additional verification of your identity when attempting to access our tools or systems from outside of the office using an application on your smartphone. With MFA, you will protect your Shared Health account with something you know (your username and password) and something you have (your smartphone). You will download the Microsoft Authenticator app onto your personal or Shared Health managed device. This app verifies that the login attempt on your computer is legitimate. • Personal Device: Your personal cell phone, not provided by Shared Health. • Shared Health Managed Device: This is a smartphone provided to you by Shared Health. For this QRG, this only includes Shared Health managed devices that allow use of email (data plans). You may also enroll an additional method or device if your first choice of MFA device is unavailable. In this event, you will be prompted for MFA on your second enrolled device. Once MFA is implemented, you will be presented with the Additional Security Verification prompt upon logging into any application protected by MFA, including MS Teams, Outlook Mobile, External OWA (Outlook on the Web) or applications currently using Imprivata Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). What do I need to use MFA? What happens if I receive a sign-in notification To use MFA, you must use a mobile-enabled device (i.e. that I did not request? smartphone).

    State Capitol P.O. Box 2062 Albany, NY 12220-0062 www.its.ny.gov New York State No: NYS-S14-006 Information Technology Standard IT Standard: Updated: 12/01/2020 Issued By: NYS Office of Information Authentication Tokens Technology Services Owner: Chief Information Security Office 1.0 Purpose and Benefits The purpose of this standard is to list the appropriate authentication tokens that can be used with systems developed or operated for New York State (NYS) that require authenticated access depending on the Authenticator Assurance Level (AAL). This document also provides the requirements for management of those authentication devices. 2.0 Authority Section 103(10) of the State Technology Law provides the Office of Information Technology Services (ITS) with the authority to establish statewide technology policies, including technology and security standards. Section 2 of Executive Order No. 117, established January 2002, provides the State Chief Information Officer with the authority to oversee, direct and coordinate the establishment of information technology policies, protocols and standards for State government, including hardware, software, security and business re-engineering.

  • Deutsche Bank Introduces DB Secure Authenticator
    Deutsche Bank Global Transaction Banking Deutsche Bank introduces DB Secure Authenticator Due to new regulations such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Payment Service Directive 2 (PSD2), Deutsche Bank will be introducing DB Secure Authenticator to ensure it is strengthening the security around clients’ data online. What is DB Secure Authenticator? DB Secure Authenticator is a new app available on iOS and Android which allows users of Global Transaction Banking online systems (e.g. the Autobahn App Market) to perform secure log-in and authorising transactions. Using DB Secure Authenticator, users can key in their username on the usual autobahn.db.com/login website and complete the log-in action with a One Time Password (OTP) which is generated on their smartphone. Generating the OTP requires a PIN code and as a result the log-in is secured by the 2-Factor Authentication standard, the PIN code being a knowledge factor, and the ownership of the registered smartphone app being a possession factor. To authorise a transaction, the DB Secure Authenticator makes use of the smartphone’s built in camera to scan the transaction details displayed online as cryptographic QR code. The app then displays the transaction details on the phone as well as a respective OTP to sign the specific transaction. A PIN code is needed before starting this process, ensuring the 2-Factor Authentication standard is met. Why is Deutsche Bank introducing DB Secure Authenticator? Global regulations and in particular PSD2 within the EU seeks to strengthen the protection of sensitive payment data. PSD2 seeks to upgrade security at the point of log-in to online banking apps and at the point that transactions are authorised.

    proceedings Proceedings Implementing a Web Application for W3C WebAuthn Protocol Testing † Martiño Rivera Dourado 1,* , Marcos Gestal 1,2 and José M. Vázquez-Naya 1,2 1 Grupo RNASA-IMEDIR, Departamento de Computación, Facultade de Informática, Universidade da Coruña, Elviña, 15071 A Coruña, Spain; [email protected] (M.G.); [email protected] (J.M.V.-N.) 2 Centro de Investigación CITIC, Universidade da Coruña, Elviña, 15071 A Coruña, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] † Presented at the 3rd XoveTIC Conference, A Coruña, Spain, 8–9 October 2020. Published: 18 August 2020 Abstract: During the last few years, the FIDO Alliance and the W3C have been working on a new standard called WebAuthn that aims to substitute the obsolete password as an authentication method by using physical security keys instead. Due to its recent design, the standard is still changing and so are the needs for protocol testing. This research has driven the development of a web application that supports the standard and gives extensive information to the user. This tool can be used by WebAuthn developers and researchers, helping them to debug concrete use cases with no need for an ad hoc implementation. Keywords: WebAuthn; authentication; testing 1. Introduction Authentication is one of the most critical parts of an application. It is a security service that aims to guarantee the authenticity of an identity. This can be done by using several security mechanisms but currently, without a doubt, the most common is the username and password method. Although this method is easy for a user to conceptually understand, it constitutes many security problems.

  • The Webauthn Standard: Why It Should Matter to the Public Sector and How It Works Executive Summary
    WEBAUTHN WHITE PAPER SERIES: MAY 2020 The WebAuthn Standard: Why It Should Matter to the Public Sector and How It Works Executive Summary This paper is the second in a series of WebAuthn whitepapers published by Yubico. For an introduction to WebAuthn and why it is both more secure and easier to use, see the first paper, Introducing WebAuthn: Enabling a Streamlined and More Secure User Authentication Experience. Most websites, services, and applications have difficulty providing secure, convenient authentication for users. Passwords are the problem. They tend to be either so simple they are easily guessed by hackers or so complex they are hard for users to remember. And all passwords, regardless of their complexity, are vulnerable to phishing and data breaches. Fortunately, WebAuthn, a new web authentication standard approved in March 2019 by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), makes it easy for websites, services, and applications to offer strong authenti- cation without relying on passwords. By replacing passwords with strong authentication based on public key cryptography, in which the private key never leaves the user’s device, WebAuthn makes authentication both easier to use and more secure, benefitting users and service providers alike. The WebAuthn standard is already supported by all major browsers and most platforms including: ● Windows 10 ● Android ● Google Chrome ● Mozilla Firefox ● Microsoft Edge ● Apple Safari ● Apple iOS WebAuthn supports various models for account authentication, leveraging both external roaming authenticators, such as hardware security keys, and authenticators built into computing and mobile devices, such as fingerprint readers and facial recognition technology. Applications and web services can choose to implement WebAuthn for passwordless authentication, two-factor authentication (2FA), and multi-factor authentication (MFA).
