Implement step-up authentication with Amazon Cognito
Posted on September 25, 2022, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
In this blog post, you'll learn how to protect privileged business transactions that are exposed as APIs by using multi-factor authentication (MFA) or security challenges. These challenges have two components: what you know (such as passwords), and what you have (such as a one-time password token). By using these multi-factor security controls, you can implement step-up authentication to obtain a higher level of security when you perform critical transactions. By Salman Moghal, Mahmoud Matouk, and Ozair Sheikh.
