There are hundreds of billions of passwords in the world
today, with more being created every day. In fact, the
average business user maintains an astounding average

PASSWORDS ARE FATALLY FLAWED. EVERYONE KNOWS IT.

not using stronger passwords, password vaults, or adding
friction with multi-factor authentication. But eliminating
passwords is just the beginning.
Don't Stop At Passwordless Authentification. Implement...
Giving the right user secure access to a system, resource, application, or network hinges on one thing – accurately confirming the user’s identity. The problem is that attackers can steal and misuse these credentials for malicious purposes, and the organization would never know.

Passwords have failed, so what's next?
Password security is one of the most important issues facing information security today, and multi-factor authentication (MFA) technology mitigates the risk of password-only security today when providing access to corporate networks. But unfortunately, traditional MFA...
Passwords are no longer sufficient to secure logins, with 81% of breaches involving weak or stolen passwords. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) protects users from attacks by ensuring that only the intended, authorized users can access critical, secure information.

Password isn't a four-letter word, but for security leaders it is just as cringe-worthy. Single-factor authentication is putting organizations both large and small at risk of data breaches daily - and two-factor authentication can be just as risky, especially if access codes are delivered via text message. The best...
