Always the right level of security
Combine a friction-free user experience with optimal security. Offer your user the authentication solution that suits their phase in the customer journey and takes into account their location, device reputation or the value of a transaction.
TrustBuilder powers adaptive authentication
TrustBuilder helps you select the best suited authentication mechanism based on the sensitivity of the accessed application or resource and based on the user session context.
Password
One-time passwords
Certificates
Phone as a token
Attribute-based
TrustBuilder uses Attribute-based Access Control (ABAC), which allows organizations to easily decide what attributes are needed for what level of authentication. Organizations can even create their own attributes to tailor the solution to their own particular requirements.Support for all authentication mechanisms
As TrustBuilder is built on the principles of openness and connectivity, we support different authentication mechanisms that an organization wants to use: from username / password to Multi-Factor Authentication, social identities, behavioral authentication. This allows organizations like retail banks to adapt the authentication mechanism to a resource’s level of sensitivity.Easy set-up of policies
The Workflow Engine uses a graphical user interface to define dynamic authentication policies. Organizations can define the level of authentication required and what attributes are in play for what authentication, based on the customer journey.Security that follows the customer journey
Applications are not born equal, nor are resources or data. When granting users access to applications or resources, it is critical to know what level of authentication needs to be imposed on the user in question. Different authentication methods and mechanisms may need to apply.
Different authentication levels for different scenarios
Offer your customer authentication methods based on their behavior. Simple authentication for logging into your banks’ mobile app and additional authentication for making a financial transactions. And whenever the monetary value of transaction bypasses a certain threshold, the system will prompt a next step, for instance by using 2 Factor authentication.
Adaptive authentication is all about combining various methods and solutions to build an authentication journey based on the security sensitivity of the performed user action. Based on what resource a user wants to access, the context will be verified in order to derive the user’s privileges.

Advantages of Adaptive Authentication
Adaptive authentication is interesting, both for the consumer and for the organization giving access to its resources.
Better customer experience
Consumers don’t want to be bothered with entering credentials when that is not needed. By applying adaptive authentication, you only ask customers for extra information when it is needed. By using lightweight and easy authentication mechanisms, companies can reduce the burden on their customers.
The right level of security
When organizations map out the customer journey, they can define at what moment stronger authentication is needed and incorporate diverse authentication methods like biometrics to enable passwordless login to eliminate bad user experiences, without compromising security.

Integrations out of the box
In a real-world environment, adhering to just one standard or protocol is not enough.
Since openness is at the heart of TrustBuilder Identity Hub, we support multiple external repositories, third-party authentication technologies and external vendor solutions.
Authentication methods
We support authentication through directories (Azure Active Directory, Microsoft AD), social login (Facebook, Google, LinkedIn), Identity Providers (eHerkenning, itsme, iDIN), and next to our own mobile authentication solution, we also support specialized security providers (Gemalto, HID, OneSpan, RSA).
Applications
Whether through support of standards or through customized connections, we easily integrate with webbased or on-premise office applications (Office365, Salesforce, SAP,…), collaboration tools (Cisco Webex, Box, DropBox, Evernote,…), infrastructure tools (AWS, Azure, Tableau,…) and – of course – security and connectivity applications (Cisco, F5, OneSpan, Thales,…).
If you do not find your preferred application or authentication method in our overview, no worries: contact us to find our how we can deliver that connection.
