The methods and names of each method are defined by the administrators of each tenant, however there are 3 basic types of authentication that can be combined:

  • sms authentication - sending One-Time-Password (OTP) to mobile phone
  • email authentication - sending the OTP to an email inbox
  • verification via verification questions and answers


Notes:

  • the following instructions describe the identity verification process using flow, which combines sending an OTP to a email address and validation using verification questions.
  • In case of only one configured authentication method, this selection step will be skipped

The application will offer a selection of all email addresses that have been entered during the enrollment process or that the user has entered in the Selfservice application as contact.

Choose one of the addresses and fill in the full email address matching the selected email address and press the SEND button. The validation of correct email address will run and if the email address is OK, then the OTP will be sent to the email address.

Fill in the OTP code that was sent to the selected email address and press the NEXT button.

If the entered OTP is correct, the next flow step will be displayed to verify the user's identity via verification questions.

7

Verification using verification questions works by having the user fill in the answers to each question. If any of the answers are found to be incorrect, user can try predefined number or tries before the entire identity verification process will be stopped and will have to start again.


Note: questions and number of displayed questions is the subject of configuration done by admin of the application.
