What are the three 3 main types of authentication techniques?

There are three basic types of authentication. The first is knowledge-based — something like a password or PIN code that only the identified user would know. The second is property-based, meaning the user possesses an access card, key, key fob or authorized device unique to them. The third is biologically based.

What are the 5 authentication factors?

Today, many organizations use multiple authentication factors to control access to secure data systems and applications. The five main authentication factor categories are knowledge factors, possession factors, inherence factors, location factors, and behavior factors.
