Authentication Analytics

Overview

This user story covers the functionality for providing detailed metrics on authentication success/fail rates and security-related events, enabling staffing company administrators to identify potential security issues and monitor authentication patterns.

User Stories

US-RA-02: Monitor Authentication Analytics

As a staffing company administrator,
I want to see authentication success/fail rates and security-related events,
So that I can identify potential security issues, monitor authentication patterns, and ensure the platform remains secure.

Acceptance Criteria

Scenario 1: Viewing Authentication Success/Failure Rates 

Given I am logged in as a staffing company administrator
When I navigate to the authentication analytics section
Then I should see visualizations of authentication success and failure rates
And I should see metrics on overall authentication attempts
And I should be able to filter the data by time period and user groups

Scenario 2: Analyzing Authentication Failure Reasons 

Given I am in the authentication analytics section
When I view the authentication failures breakdown
Then I should see a categorized breakdown of failures by reason
And I should see metrics for each failure category (invalid credentials, account lockout, etc.)
And I should be able to drill down into specific failure types for more details

Scenario 3: Monitoring Multi-factor Authentication Usage 

Given I am in the authentication analytics section
When I select the MFA usage tab
Then I should see statistics on multi-factor authentication usage
And I should see which MFA methods are most commonly used
And I should see metrics on MFA enrollment and success rates

Scenario 4: Identifying Accounts with Repeated Failures 

Given I am in the authentication analytics section
When I view the security risks tab
Then I should see a list of accounts with repeated authentication failures
And I should see the number and pattern of failures for each account
And I should be able to take action directly from this view (e.g., lock account, reset password)

Scenario 5: Analyzing Authentication Trends 

Given I am in the authentication analytics section
When I view the trends analysis
Then I should see visualizations of authentication patterns over time
And I should see comparisons between current and previous periods
And I should see anomaly detection highlighting unusual authentication patterns

Scenario 6: Setting Up Authentication Alerts 

Given I am in the authentication analytics section
When I configure authentication alerts
Then I should be able to set thresholds for authentication-related alerts
And I should be able to specify which authentication events trigger alerts
And I should be able to configure notification methods for alerts

Scenario 7: Exporting Authentication Data 

Given I am viewing authentication analytics data
When I click the export button
Then I should be able to export the authentication data for further analysis
And I should be able to select the format (CSV, Excel)
And sensitive authentication data should be appropriately protected in exports

Dependencies

  • User Authentication Framework
  • Auth0 Integration
  • Data Visualization Components

Notes

  • Authentication analytics should respect privacy and security considerations
  • Historical authentication data should be retained according to security policies
  • The system should provide context-aware recommendations for improving authentication security
  • Authentication analytics should integrate with the broader security monitoring framework
  • The interface should make it easy to identify potential security issues requiring attention
