3D Secure 2 (3DS 2) is a new technology standard developed by EMVCo that enables strong customer authentication to comply with regulations like PSD2 in Europe. It introduces a new approach to authentication through secure data sharing, biometric identification, and an improved mobile-friendly customer experience. Adyen’s market leading solution supports the widest coverage of card networks for 3DS 2 and legacy versions of 3DS at global scale through a single platform.
