Auditing sessions makes it possible to detect access to critical functions without required authentication.
The assessment process confirms authentication is present and effective for critical functions, preventing exploitation from missing authentication.
Certification assesses that critical functions have required authentication controls in place.
Requiring authorization servers ensures authorization is performed for protected functions.
Tailoring determines which functions require authentication and selects the appropriate baseline or compensating authentication controls.
