Abstract
A computer-implemented authentication method is described. The method includes the steps of (a) receiving an authentication request at an authentication computing system, the request including a resource identifier, (b) identifying one or more authentication pools associated with the resource identifier, each authentication pool including at least one authentication method implementation, (c) executing a pool authentication process for the one or more identified authentication pools, and (d) transmitting a response to the identification authentication request based on the execution of the pool authentication process for the one or more identified authentication pools.
