Advancement of Authentication Solutions: Webinar on Multi-Factor Authentication, Passkeys, and the Transition to Password-Free
The surge in password-free authentication interest has surged due to the expansion of hybrid work environments and pervasive digitalization. This has resulted in a heightened demand for robust data privacy and user-friendly interfaces. Without these safeguards, organizations face potential data breaches, disclosures, and substantial financial setbacks.
Conventional password-dependent systems offer protection but are vulnerable to security risks like spoofing and identity theft, prompting contemplation of shifting to password-free methods. Furthermore, users frequently struggle to recall multiple passkeys, further compromising security as they tend to reuse the same passkey for accessing various business platforms and devices.
Nonetheless, password-free techniques such as biometrics, smartcards, and multi-factor authentication emphasize both data privacy and user contentment. However, not all password-free authentication systems are identical and pose their unique challenges.
The imperative need for dependable security protocols is predominantly propelled by cyber onslaughts and data breaches. In the webinar “Advancement of Authentication Solutions: Passkeys vs Password-Free and MFA,” co-hosts James Azar, Chief Information Security Officer, and Darren James, Senior Product Manager at Specops Software, will provide valuable insights into the shifting landscape of passkey security and authentication solutions.
