Overview of Mobile Authenticator Studio features

Mobile Authenticator Studio features

One-time password

The generation of a one-time password (OTP) can be time-based, event-based, or time- and event-based. OTPs can be generated in Response-Only or Challenge/Response mode.

For the Challenge/Response mode, the challenge and response requests can be entered manually or by scanning a QR code or colored QR code (Cronto image).

Challenge/Response OTP generation is only supported in single-device licensing integrations.

E-signature

Digital signature generation can be time-based, event-based or time- and event-based. In single-device licensing integrations, the e-signature request can be approved manually or by scanning a QR code or colored QR code (Cronto image).

Transaction Data Signing

Transaction data that is stored on a server can be signed.

Transaction data signing can be triggered by tapping a button in the Mobile Authenticator Studio app which allows the user to retrieve a list of pending transactions to be signed. This is supported for integrations with Mobile Security Suite.

This feature is supported in single-device licensing and multi-device licensing integrations.

Process a single login or transaction operation

When Mobile Authenticator Studio is integrated with DIGIPASS Gateway, the user can process a single login or transaction operation.

Secure Channel

(multi-device licensing)

One-way channel to encrypt the communication between the server and the authenticator account with a randomly generated symmetric key, the payload key. The data are processed by scanning a QR code or colored QR code (Cronto image).

App-to-App Secure Channel Communication (multi-device licensing)

The Mobile Authenticator Studio app can receive a secure channel message from a third-party application or web page, display the message content, sign it, and invoke the third-party application or web page with the message signature.

Push Notification (multi-device licensing)

The Mobile Authenticator Studio app can receive push notifications that inform the user about pending transactions.

This feature is supported in single-device licensing integrations only.

QR code activation

The offline mode of QR code activation is available both for single-device and multi-device licensing integrations, QR code activation in online mode is only available for multi-device license integrations with DIGIPASS Gateway.
