Passwordless

Forget passwords, go passwordless!

Passwords are becoming a relic of the past. The use of passwords leaves us increasingly more vulnerable as we become more predictable in generating them. Trying to combat this with requirements for stronger complexity and frequent updates makes it harder to be productive, drives up already-high costs in password maintenance and support, and still isn’t enough to keep up with current cybersecurity threats. People want a highly secure, convenient alternative.

Passwordless authentication is a form of multi-factor authentication (MFA) that replaces passwords with two or more verification factors secured and encrypted on a user’s device, such as a fingerprint, facial recognition, a device pin, or a cryptographic key. The credentials never leave the device, eliminating the risk of phishing. These alternatives are based on new industry standards developed by members of the Fast ID Online (FIDO) Alliance.

Features like multifactor authentication can help secure your organization, but users often get frustrated with the additional security layer on top of having to remember their passwords. Passwordless authentication methods are more convenient because there’s no password to remember, and they’re compatible across most devices and systems. Plus, they’re virtually impervious to phishing.
