User Verification

Summary

User verification is the process of confirming a user's identity before granting access to a system or application.

Detailed Description

User verification mitigates security risks by ensuring that the person attempting to access an account or system is indeed the legitimate user. This can involve methods such as passwords, biometrics, two-factor authentication (2FA), or identity verification processes that require users to provide additional information to confirm their identity.
