The article touches upon the problems of information security of remote working employees operating in companies with a cloud-based infrastructure. The degree of influence of the authentication system on the reliability of the information security system is analyzed based on the CVSS (common vulnerability scoring system). A comparative analysis of the reliability of two-factor biometric and password authentication systems is carried out by assessing the probabilities of successful attacks. Furthermore, a two-factor biometric authentication scheme is proposed for working with cloud-based structures.
