What is
Passwordless Authentication?
Passwordless authentication enhances security by replacing traditional passwords with more secure alternatives, such as one-time passwords delivered via mobile or Whatsapp, push notifications, and biometric authentication. This approach mitigates risks associated with password-related threats, including password spraying, credential stuffing, spear phishing, brute force attacks, and offline cracking.
What does Passwordless Authentication prevent?
Password Spraying
Password spraying involves attackers trying common passwords across multiple accounts for unauthorized access. Passwordless login methods like OTP/TOTP generate unique codes per login, avoiding reliance on common passwords. This innovative approach helps prevent password spraying attacks, enhancing security against widespread unauthorized access attempts across multiple accounts.
Credentials Stuffing
Credential stuffing involves using stolen login details for unauthorized access. Passwordless login, by eliminating static passwords and using dynamic codes per login (like OTP/TOTP), prevents the exploitation of stolen credentials across accounts, preventing credential stuffing attacks and enhancing overall security.
Brute Force Attack
Brute force attacks involve the systematic guessing of login details. Passwordless login methods, utilizing dynamic authentication like OTP or TOTP while removing the reliance on static passwords, effectively defend against brute force attacks. This approach significantly enhances security measures by preventing unauthorized access attempts without the need for traditional passwords.
Benefits of Passwordless Authentication
Enhanced Security
Passwordless authentication minimizes the risk of common threats like phishing and brute force attacks. No need to create or remember complex passwords, worry about insecure storage, or share passwords across accounts. It relies on unique, hard-to-spoof factors like biometrics or personal devices, making it tougher for hackers to access your accounts, even if they compromise a device or email account.
Reduced Password-related Risks
Passwordless authentication removes the vulnerabilities associated with traditional passwords, reducing the risk of forgetfulness, loss, theft, or compromise. This eliminates the need for managing, resetting, or updating passwords and bypasses compliance with complex password policies. By simplifying security measures, it saves both time and money while minimizing legal and regulatory liabilities.
Improved User Experience
Passwordless authentication improves user experience by making it easier, faster, and safer to log in. Users do not have to remember or type passwords, which can be stolen or forgotten. They can use their phone, email, or biometrics to verify their identity and access their accounts.
Mitigating Phishing Attacks
Passwordless authentication helps users avoid phishing attacks by using their phone, email, or biometrics instead of passwords. Users also have to confirm their identity with a second factor, such as a code or a device. WebAuthn ensures that the authentication is from the real website and not a fake one.
