25.0 Support for Advanced Authentication

SecureLogin uses the Advanced Authentication infrastructure to integrate SecureLogin features with Advanced Authentication. The integration with Advanced Authentication helps SecureLogin to single sign-on to the required application by using different authentication mechanism. For more information about Advanced Authentication, see the Server Administration Guide.

The authentication mechanisms supported are:

  • Biometric authentication using fingerprint

  • Smart Card

  • Radius client

  • Email OTP

  • Emergency password

  • LDAP password

  • OATH OTP, namely HOTP AND TOTP

  • Advanced Authentication password

  • SMS OTP

  • Security questions

  • Smartphone

  • U2F

  • PKI

  • Voice

    NOTE:NSL 8.5 does not support the NotarisID method.

In a system with Advanced Authentication installed, SecureLogin supports the following features:

  • Authentication: Advanced Authentication provides the Credential Provider in the system where it is installed. When the user logs in using this Credential Provider, SecureLogin will also launch seamlessly in an Active Directory environment.

  • Re-authentication: SecureLogin leverages this functionality by making Advanced Authentication available during re-authentication. This module can be configured from the wizard or a script. An appropriate authenticator can be selected for re-authentication when configuring this module. This feature is supported in Active Directory, AD LDS and eDirectory environments.

  • Kiosk Mode: SecureLogin uses Advanced Authentication as an external authenticator in Active Directory and eDirectory deployments in kiosk mode.

  • DAS Support: DAS on Active Directory and eDirectory supports the Advanced Authentication and SecureLogin integrated environment. This feature can effectively be used for desktop sharing using DAS.
