Passwords are not safe!
Most data breaches are linked to stolen or compromised user passwords - as many as 80%. Data breaches and cybersecurity crimes continue despite increasingly complex passwords, anti-phishing tools and user awareness training. Users continue to re-use personal passwords in a corporate environment. These personal passwords aren’t protect by the security and anti-phishing investments made by corporations.
FIDO does not use passwords.
Organizations that adopt FIDO reduce or eliminate passwords from their organization. FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) is an alliance supported by technology leaders (Google, Microsoft, Salesforce, etc.) creating the world’s largest ecosystem for standards-based, interoperable authentication. They have defined the UAF (Universal Authentication Framework) and U2F (Universal Second Factor) standards which use biometrics and physical tokens to simply and securely authenticate users to their devices which then authenticate to the website or web service. The user never has to use, re-use or remember a password!
