Authentication tradeoffs

A challenge that faces many growing organizations is the need to combine information systems, as was illustrated in the authentication and authorization case study. When this happens many decisions need to be made about what methods of authentication would work best and to what degree things should be restricted. Assess the tradeoffs that you think would be encountered in a setting such as Williams Hospital when it comes to authentication and authorization. Examine what factors should be considered regarding how restrictive policies should be for authentication methods.
