Summary:
|
Some environments necessitate the authentication of the human user rather than a process or a device. In authenticating human users, the authentication system requires human users to prove their uniqueness. Such uniqueness is generally based on various authentication means like something known, something possessed or some immutable characteristics for each human user.
This Recommendation provides a guideline on user authentication mechanism for the home network services. It also considers various security issues according to Recommendation X.1111, which specifies the framework of security technologies for home network. Finally, the security assurance level and authentication model are defined according to authentication service scenarios.
