Migrate to Passwordless Authentication to Enhance Security and Optimize UX

“IAM leaders should migrate to passwordless methods wherever they can, and as soon as they can, to enhance security and optimize UX.”

Gartner® analysts anticipate that “By 2027, more than 75% of workforce authentication transactions and more than 40% of customer authentication transactions will be passwordless with concomitant security and UX benefits.”

To help IAM leaders move away from passwords, Gartner has just published this 42-page report including a 4-step migration plan.  

We believe this is a valuable read for IAM teams in enterprise and mid-sized organizations across industries. This phased approach by Gartner will make it easier to successfully navigate the move toward more secure and user-friendly authentication – for both customer authentication and workforce authentication. 

With this report, we think you’ll get:
•    Best practices, frameworks, and tools for your migration 
•    An overview of passwordless methods, including hardware and software tokens, FIDO2 security keys, and passwordless MFA
•    Focus areas to minimize time-to-value
