Activation of Authentication Methods
cidaas Multifactor or Two-factor Authentication offers an additional layer of security for end-users. It provides the user with the means of verifying their identity through a second channel to eliminate any doubt about the legitimacy of an access request. MFA is available for password-based (email/username/mobile number and password) and passwordless authentication flows.
Authentication and Token Generation Process
The Authentication to cidaas follows a sequential flow with three main steps. This documentation explains how to implement the complete authentication process.
Authentication method reference (AMR)
The AMR value is used in authentication protocols. It refers to a value that indicates the methods or mechanisms used to authenticate a user during an authentication process.
Configuring FIDO2
This flow can be reimplemented and integrated into their own pages and platform directly using the cidaas APIs
Device Management
Device management in cidaas — register and manage devices including device-bound verification methods.
FIDO2 (Authentication)
Authenticate with FIDO2 in cidaas — let users sign in with FIDO2 compliant Keys, or via passkeys or platform authenticators.
FIDO2 (Enrolment)
Enrol FIDO2 in cidaas — register a security key or passkey / platform authenticator as a verification method, with the flow and APIs.
Overview of Authentication Methods (Verification)
Passwordless authentication in cidaas — FIDO2 passkeys, TOTP, magic links, push, OTP, and biometric verification methods.
Pattern (Enrolment)
Enrol pattern verification in cidaas — register the pattern as a verification method, in the cidaas Authenticator or your own app.
Public API Guides
cidaas Public API guides — authentication, OAuth 2.0, MFA, passwordless, user management, and identity verification.
Smart Push (Enrolment)
