| Multifactor authentication is defined as: using two or more factors to achieve authentication.
Factors include:
(i) something a user knows (e.g., password/PIN);
(ii) something a user has (e.g., cryptographic identification device, token); or
(iii) something a user is (e.g., biometric).
A non-privileged account is defined as:
An information system account with authorizations of a regular or non-privileged user.
Network Access is defined as:
Access to an information system by a user (or a process acting on behalf of a user) communicating through a network (e.g., local area network, wide area network, Internet).
Applications integrating with the DoD Active Directory and utilize the DoD CAC are examples of compliant multifactor authentication solutions. |
