Confidentiality and Authentication were once treated different but now-a-days, improvement in technology is demanding both of them to be used together. Though technology is increasing tremendously, smart hackers on the environment always challenges the authentication factors, thereby enforcing more number of factors for authentication to be included. As factors increase, failure rate for authentication may also be more when any one of the factors doesn’t work. A qualitative survey of user authentication systems being used in today’s environment is presented here and a comparative study of various authentication mechanisms used in the world of Information security by various researchers is shown.
