About Spriv Adaptive Multi Factor Authentication
Spriv is a patented Adaptive Multi Factor Authentication platform. It verifies the second factor out-of-band and in the background, so a user signing in from a computer and location Spriv already trusts is not interrupted, while a login that looks abnormal still has to be approved on the paired phone.
The same platform covers Windows Remote Desktop (RDP), Linux and Unix PAM for SSH and sudo, and custom applications through a REST API. Adaptive MFA sits alongside Allow/Deny push, Two-Way SMS and TOTP, so every user keeps a way in when their phone has no signal.
