Zusammenfassung: | Embodiments of the invention provide a computer-implemented method of executing multi-factor authentication (MFA). In embodiments of the invention, the computer-implemented method includes analyzing multiple categories of MFA factors, wherein a first category of the multiple categories of MFA factors includes a something-you-have MFA (SYH-MFA) factor. The SYH-MFA factor is analyzed by receiving, using a processor of an authenticating entity, an SYH certificate from a to-be-authenticated (TBA) entity; and determining, using the processor, that the SYH-MFA factor is satisfied by determining that the SYH certificate possessed by the TBA entity is valid. |
