Abstract :

As cybersecurity threats evolve, organizations are increasingly exploring the shift to passwordless authentication as part of their security strategies. Passwords are often a weak link in an organization’s security chain, vulnerable to phishing attacks, credential theft, and poor management practices. This paper outlines the enterprise journey toward adopting a passwordless framework, emphasizing the significance of eliminating passwords, how such a transition can be planned and implemented, and the key benefits of adopting passwordless security. The paper also explores how passwordless solutions mitigate risk and improve compliance and security posture.
