Glossary

  • Enhanced Authentication

    The use of multiple measures relying on what a user knows (e.g., a password plus a “shared secret,” such as the user’s mother’s maiden name).

  • Equal Error Rate

    The rate at which the false acceptance rate and the false rejection rate are equal.

  • Error-Rate Tradeoff

    The proposition that, as the false acceptance rate rises, the false rejection rates tends to fall, and vice versa.
