Passwordless MFA
with Passkeys



Passwordless Authentication

Overview

Eliminate password vulnerabilities with passkey-based multi-factor authentication. These solutions leverage cryptographic key pairs stored securely on user devices, ensuring that authentication occurs without transmitting sensitive credentials over networks. By replacing traditional passwords with public-key cryptography, organizations can significantly reduce risks associated with password databases and reuse attacks.


Key Benefits

Enhanced Security: Protect against phishing and credential stuffing attacks.
Improved UX: Fast, frictionless authentication without remembering complex passwords.
Device Integration: Leverage biometric and device-based authentication methods.
Reduced Administrative Overhead: Minimize password reset requests and helpdesk tickets through self-service device-bound authentication.

Technical Standards

WebAuthn Compliance: Adheres to W3C Web Authentication standard for secure, phishing-resistant authentication.
FIDO2 Support: Compatible with FIDO2 protocols for cross-platform device authentication.
Privacy-Preserving Design: Ensures user data remains on-device, complying with GDPR and other privacy regulations while enabling audit-ready logs.
