Ensuring Peace of Mind: Secure Transition to Multi-Tenant Cloud

Introduction In the fast-paced realm of technology, cloud computing stands as a beacon of innovation, offering enterprises unprecedented opportunities to streamline operations and drive growth. By leveraging on-demand services over the Internet, businesses can access a wealth of resources spanning infrastructure, software, and platforms with unmatched flexibility and scalability.

Is passwordless authentication the future of securing digital identities?


When it comes to online security, the battle cry among experts lately is: “The future is passwordless!” So, why is passwordless authentication so important?

Simple. Passwords are just too easy to guess, hack, or intercept. What’s more, the legacy of password reuse is leading to constant attack and account vulnerabilities.

However, modern-day passwordless authentication goes beyond the use of password and username credentials. 

So, whether your organization wants to replace passwords or is determined to keep using them, you must first understand password weaknesses. Here are a few:

  • Users often create weak passwords that are vulnerable to phishing attacks.
  • Hackers commonly use brute force attacks to hack password credentials. 
  • Users often reuse the same authentication credentials on different accounts.
  • Password methods alone cannot keep hackers away.

Remember that we’re not dealing with bored, out-of-work hackers playing for thrills. Rather, these are often well-established criminal organizations using high-end machine learning (for big profit). 

What is Passwordless Authentication?

A passwordless authentication system is one that swaps the use of a traditional password with more secure factors. These extra-security methods may include a magic link, fingerprint, PIN, or a secret token delivered via email or text message.
