Abstract

Authentication is the process of verifying a user's credentials when they are requesting services from any secure system. The most commonly form of authentication is the single-factor authentication, which only requires one factor for the user to log into the system. In this case, the username and password together act as a single-factor. A more secure technique is the multi-factor authentication, which requires more than one factor to gain access into a particular system. In this paper, we propose a RFID Factor Authentication Application (RFAA), an enhanced technique from Sof Token [1] that acts as a technique for two-factor authentication. The RFAA not only sustains the next level of security but also is proven to prevent most of security breaches.
