Description

Jwt has an amr (authentication method reference) claim and the following draft defines values for authentication methods, like otp, sms, fingerprint etc., together with an open registry for new methods.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jones-oauth-amr-values-00

They might be useful for the authorization server to tell the client which kind of strong authentication is expected, so that the client can display an appropriate ui (an app could be able to ask for an otp from a device or for a fingerprint, the server could tell the app what method the resource owner has chosen when setting up strong auth).
