Introduction
With OneSpan Cloud Authentication (OCA), OneSpan offers a comprehensive solution for strong authentication in the cloud, integrating Push Notification Message that is pushed from a server to a user and is displayed on an end-user device, e.g. a mobile device. Push notifications are received by a particular app. This must be registered on the corresponding server to receive notifications. Notifications can be sent at any time, the users do not have to be actively using the app at that time. and Secure Channel operations.
