tunnistautumisella

Tunnistautumisella on finnish linguistic and practical meaning: it denotes the act or method of authenticating one's identity, and it is the instrumental case of tunnistautuminen. In everyday Finnish, tunnistautuminen refers to identifying and verifying who a person is, while tunnistautumisella describes performing a task by means of authentication, for example logging in or accessing a service through verification of identity.

In digital services, tunnistautuminen is a central concept describing how a user proves who they are in order to gain access. The phrase tunnistautumisella is commonly used in terms like “kirjautuminen tapahtuu tunnistautumisella” or “asiakas tunnistautuu tunnistautumisella.” The process can involve different methods of verification, and modern systems often require strong or multi-factor authentication. Typical methods include bank IDs, mobile IDs, Suomi.fi-tunnistus, usernames and passwords, and, in some cases, digital certificates or biometric data. European and national regulations encourage or require strong authentication for sensitive operations.

Security and privacy considerations are integral to tunnistautumisella. Because authentication involves personal data and access to services, organizations implement safeguards such as multi-factor authentication, token-based access, and monitoring for suspicious activity. Users are advised to recognize phishing attempts and to keep credentials secure. In legal and regulatory contexts, tunnistautuminen is part of digital identity management and is linked to broader concepts of electronic identity, identity verification, and service authentication.
