  • Per ISO 704:2009 methodology
Noun Generic term used in this framework to include all different solutions used to obtain an authentication factor to perform Swift-related operations: • hardware devices: connected (such as HSM tokens which contain cryptographic keys) or disconnected (such as tokens generating authentication strings), and • software applications (such as OTP generator applications on mobile or another device). Example of solutions in practice: TOTP, RSA SecurID, Digipass, Transaction Authentication Number (TAN) Table, 3Skey Digital, personal USB tokens. The solution should be selected as per the Provider's risk management, considering NIST SP 800-63B Authenticator Assurance Level 2 as guidance. (used 1 times in citations and controls)
