Information on the topic of "Authentication" for online services
What does "authentication" mean?
Authentication means that it is checked whether you are actually the person who wants to submit the online application.
To this end, we offer you various procedures that are designed to make the process as simple as possible for you as the applicant - where this is justifiable. In certain cases, however, higher requirements must be imposed in the interests of both your security and ours. Depending on the level of trust required for an online service, the authentication requirements increase accordingly.
