addresses: CWE-288

Authorizing remote access reduces the ability to bypass authentication via unauthorized alternate remote channels.

addresses: CWE-288

Users can identify logons via alternate paths or channels by reviewing the previous logon time.

addresses: CWE-288

Adaptive requirements can apply across access paths, reducing the ability to bypass authentication via alternate channels or paths.

addresses: CWE-288

Centralized IdPs close alternate authentication paths that enable bypass.

addresses: CWE-288

Enforces authentication for non-organizational users, making it harder to bypass via alternate paths or channels.

addresses: CWE-288

Requires authentication to occur exclusively over the isolated trusted path, directly preventing bypass via alternate or untrusted channels.
