Passwordless Authentication
Thales offers several authentication solutions for passwordless SSO (single sign on) by using a combination of Push OTP and Biometric PIN or Push OTP and PIN.
Traditional passwords have many downfalls. The average user has 27 different applications which need verification, choosing a different password for each app becomes cumbersome and most often the same password is just reused, which greatly compromises security. That’s where passwordless authentication comes in.
Passwordless authentication offers the user a way to verify themselves while not having to remember or manually type passwords, which in turn provides stronger security and fewer breaches. So how does it work?
