• Key Concepts: 
  Authentication templates are used in SAP BC-SEC Security to define the authentication methods used for user logins. They are used to define the type of authentication, such as password, certificate, or biometric, as well as the parameters associated with each type. Authentication templates can also be used to define the authorization rules for users. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Authentication templates are created in the SAP BC-SEC Security system. To create an authentication template, you must first define the type of authentication you want to use. You can then specify the parameters associated with that type of authentication, such as password length or biometric data. Once you have defined the authentication template, you can assign it to users in order to control their access rights. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an authentication template, it is important to consider the security requirements of your organization. For example, if you are using passwords for authentication, you should ensure that they meet your organization's password complexity requirements. Additionally, if you are using biometric data for authentication, you should ensure that the data is stored securely and that only authorized personnel have access to it.
