An access management system is disclosed that can employ multi-factor authentication (MFA) using multiple types of authentication. In at least one embodiment, techniques may include implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) including knowledge-based authentication (KBA). MFA may be based on multiple factors, such as 'what you know' (e.g., a password or an answer to a question known by a user) and 'what you have' (e.g., a trusted device registered for a user). In at least one embodiment, multiple devices (e.g., a desktop computer and a mobile device) may be utilized to provide for stronger authentication using a combination of what a user has. The combination of MFA based on what you know (e.g., KBA) and what you have (e.g., a trusted device) may further ensure authentication is not compromised. The techniques disclosed herein may provide for a stronger form of authentication to reduce, if not eliminate, possible vulnerabilities for access management.

A system, method, computer program and article of manufacture for updateable fan-out replication with reconfigurable master association in a large, multi-node LDAP environment. A replication ring supports the addition of fan-out nodes as children to each primary node that sits on a replication ring. The fan-out nodes can be cascaded in multiple parent/child relationships and can support full replication or a subset of the parent data. Each child/parent relationship is defined by an agreement. Each fan-out node replicates changes to their immediate children and parent based upon the change details and the configured agreement, distributing the replication load.
