USE-CASE
Integrate with external systems
PhenixID enhances security by integrating user data from external systems into authentication processes. This approach not only tightens security but also allows for a personalised, user-friendly experience. Aimed at public sector professionals, we balance complex security needs with ease of access.
Problem
Balancing complexity and efficiency in enhanced security authentication
As we increase security, authentication processes inevitably become more complex, posing a challenge to user experience. A solution lies in enriching these authentication flows with user-specific data from external systems. This approach not only maintains high security standards but also enhances the service quality, making the process more efficient and personalised for the user.
Answer
Streamlined integration and contextual access control
The PhenixID Authenticate solution features a range of predefined integrations, encompassing both commonly used external systems and services tailored specifically for the public sector. This significantly reduces the workload for IT departments in terms of system integrations, while also enabling context-based access control, factoring in elements like network, time, and device. Furthermore, our solution supports advanced authentication scenarios, such as initiating control signals to agencies like the tax authority to determine authentication eligibility. It also offers the capability to enrich tokens sent to the service with data that is not available in Active Directory, providing a more comprehensive and secure user verification process.
