Powerful Security
Passwords are hacked the most with 81% success of breaches, leading to account takeover attacks, brute force attacks, credential stuffing and password spraying. Passwordless Authentication protects users from such attacks.
More it Control and Visibility
Going passwordless lets IT reclaim its purpose of having complete visibility over identity and access management. IT can control the security of their organization and gain a better visibility into specific factors used by users.
Major Savings on Help Desk Costs
On average, an IT help desk receives 67% of calls related to password resets monthly. This drains productivity and increases password reset costs for an organization. Eliminating passwords will allow users to recover their own accounts using factors they have enrolled in.
Enhanced User Experience
Authenticating users through factors that they already possess, such as their mobile device (mobile authenticator apps, biometrics, SMS OTP) or laptop (Email OTP, Fingerprint, Face Recognition) enhance end user experiences with no lengthy passwords to remember.
