comparing the composite score with a first threshold and a second threshold;

authorizing the user device when the composite score is less than the first threshold;

presenting the first test when the composite score lies between the first threshold and the second threshold; and

denying access to the resource when the composite score is greater than the first threshold and the second threshold.
