What does TBDP mean in UNCLASSIFIED

TBDP is a type of two-factor authentication that combines the use of a time-based code (OTP) with the traditional username and password combination. It is an effective way to protect against hackers, reduce fraud and secure confidential information.

TBDP requires users to enter their username and password as well as a one-time password generated by an authentication system that changes every few minutes or seconds, depending on the security settings. The OTP must be entered within the given time frame in order to gain access to the system or resource being protected.

Yes, TBDP provides an additional layer of security compared to simply relying on usernames and passwords alone. The OTP adds an extra level of security because it cannot be guessed or stolen by malicious actors and it can only be used once within its designated timeframe, making it difficult for attackers to gain unauthorized access.

TBDP provides enhanced protection for user accounts, especially for those containing sensitive or personal information such as financial data or healthcare records. It is also useful if you need to quickly grant limited access to resources without having to create multiple accounts or reset passwords each time someone needs access.

Setting up TBDP typically involves creating an account within your chosen authentication platform and configuring any number of relevant policies such as expiration times, lockout periods, required OTP length, etc., before deploying it across your organization's systems or applications. Consult with your IT team for assistance setting up and implementing this solution.
