Entersekt White Paper, Expert Available: Get FIDO Ready™
Entersekt:
What:
|
|
|
|
As consumers and businesses alike continue to embrace the
convenience and efficiency of digital channels, they must contend
with a growing number of usernames and passwords to access their
web- and app-based accounts. Expecting them to memorize all of their
login credentials is a lost cause. Internet services have realized
this and have set out to develop a more convenient means of securing
their online and mobile offerings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) Alliance has created standards-based
protocols to revolutionize traditional authentication practices and
help us migrate away from our heavy reliance on usernames and
passwords. Underlying everything this fast-growing industry
consortium does are the principles of convenience, security, and
standardization.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In an effort to provide financial institutions with the knowledge
to understand the evolution of authentication and the options now
available to protect themselves and their customers, Entersekt
has published a new white paper titled "Get FIDO Ready."

methods and their benefits compared to older approaches. Brand can
