Introduction to Adaptive Authentication

Adaptive MFA improves the user experience while also improving security. Users are only asked to provide an additional authentication factor when necessary. The reason is adaptive authentication users authenticate with a first factor, which is usually username and password. Then the authentication process checks contextual information such as IP, tenant, user role, etc. If the context doesn’t match the predefined policy, then only the system requests a second authentication method. Therefor adaptive authentication is a secure and flexible form of authentication.
