Multi-Factor Authentication

Kron PAM’s Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is available in offline modes with Kron PAM Mobile Client Application, hard token, and SMS verification.

The MFA screen can be managed by Admin-type users, but it can also be assigned to users with newly defined role definitions. According to the newly defined functions, administrator rights will be granted on the MFA screens. Additionally, users will be able to manage changes for all users on the MFA screen. New portal functions for managing and viewing all users will be added.

Role Name

MFA Admin

Function

mfa.allow.users.manage.otp

Description

With the MFA Admin role, users who are not system admins can be granted the MFA Admin function group in the Portal Function, allowing them to have full authority on the MFA screens. (Both the authority to see all screens under MFA and the authority to perform operations on the screens)

Role Name

MFA User Token Viewer

Function

mfa.user.token.viewer

Description

For other users who do not have this function, if they are given the MFA User Token Viewer function group, they will be able to view information related to their token user under the User Token Management section in the MFA screen and will only be able to perform actions related to their user.

Role Name

MFA User Group Viewer

Function

The MFA User Group Viewer grants permission to view the User Group Management screen in the MFA and allows the user to perform actions only related to their group.

After the Portal Function definitions are completed, access and modification rights for token information on the Multi-Factor Authentication screens will be granted according to the assigned functions. Users with admin rights will be able to access other users' information.

Access and management rights for other users will be determined according to the defined system configuration parameter. This parameter controls whether token information can be accessed from the MFA screen.
