Supported Authenticators for OneSpan Cloud Authentication

OneSpan Cloud Authentication supports both hardware and software authenticators for the available authentication and transaction data signing operations. The following authenticator types are supported:

• Hardware authenticators that support the following operations:

  • Response-Only

  • Signature

  • Cronto image authentication

    These authenticators are visual transaction signing solutions, where the Cronto image is scanned to capture the critical transaction information. No data entry is required. The transaction information is encrypted, and users verify the transaction details on a trusted display.

  • FIDO-based passwordless authentication

• Software authenticators that support authentication and transaction data signing operations:

  • OneSpan Mobile Authenticator Studio

  • OneSpan Mobile Security Suite Orchestration SDK

    These authenticators facilitate two-factor authentication as well as e-signature generation to address the security risks of mobile and online applications.

    For more information about the product features and deployment, refer to the OneSpan Mobile Authenticator Studio and OneSpan Mobile Security Suite product documentation.

Specific authenticator activation scenarios

To ensure successful authentication and transaction data signing operations, the authenticator used for the operations must be activated. In addition, OneSpan Mobile Authenticator Studio and OneSpan Mobile Security Suite Orchestration SDK must also be customized.
