Modern Authentication is based on OAuth2.0 which is an open standard for token-based authentication and authorization particularly suited for cloud services on the internet because it gives identity providers with the ability to grant third-party access to web resources without sharing a password. It is the newer and preferred method for accessing Office365 workloads such as Skype for Business Online and Exchange Online in comparison to legacy authentication methods based on the Microsoft Online Sign-in Assistant (OrgID) or basic authentication. To align with Microsoft's strategy, Polycom has already started to use modern authentication for its VVX family of IP Phones in UCS 5.5.1 and in the very near future, also for Polycom Group Series room systems as well which is currently undergoing Office365 qualification testing. Modern Authentication is a new method of granting access to all Office365 workloads for a wide range of client platforms including Office2016, Skype for Business 2016 as well as mobile devices running Windows, iOS and Android.
