Quorum-based access control management may be implemented. Quorum controls may be created for determining whether to perform or deny access control operations to perform privileged tasks. When an access control operation is received, approval of the operation may be requested from members for the quorum control. If a policy for the quorum control is satisfied by approval responses, then approval to perform the access control operation may be provided.

Cumulative risk-based scoring may be implemented for quorum controls. Requests for authorization of a proposed action may be received. Approvals from members of a quorum set authorized to approve the action may be received. Risk assessments of the members may be used to generate authorization scores. The combined authorization scores may be compared with a quorum authorization threshold to determine whether the proposed action is authorized or denied.

A delivery verification service receives an electronic message that indicates delivery of an authentication device. In response to receiving the electronic message, the delivery verification service identifies, based at least in part on the electronic message, a set of attributes of a recipient to which the authentication device was delivered. Based at least in part on these attributes of the recipient, the delivery verification service determines whether to activate the authentication device. If the delivery verification service determines that the authentication device can be activated, the delivery verification service causes the authentication device to be enabled.
