Technical Whitepaper: Biometric Passwordless Authentication (FIDO2 WebAuthN)

The booming cost of account takeover (ATO) attacks, from $4BN in 2020 to $16BN in 2021, makes passwordless authentication a truly pressing need for all businesses.

Most current “passwordless” technologies still contain shared secrets and friction – deeming them irrelevant to the world’s most prominent workforce and buying power: Gen Y and Gen Z.

Biometric authentication is therefore a true revolution – replacing logins with a single-action unlock, just like accessing your smartphone.

In this whitepaper we explore:

  • Why biometric authentication is the only viable passwordless solution for web applications
  • How FIDO WebAuthN works in registration, authentication, and account recovery
  • What you should be aware of before you make the move
  • How to effortlessly implement FIDO WebAuthN in your web applications
