Is Trustable Passwords a form of strong authentication?
Yes. There are four ways to authentication someone: 1. Something the user knows (e.g. user name, passwords, PINs) 2. Something the user has (e.g. smartcards, tokens, RFID badges) 3. Something the user is (e.g. finger scans, facial, iris recognition) 4. Something the user does (e.g. voice recognition, Trustable Passwords) “Strong” means passwords, #1, paired with either #2, #3, or #4. The combination of passwords with something else (another factor) constitutes “Strong” in generally accepted definitions. Trustable Passwords is 2-factor strong authentication (#1 knows and #4 does).
