Okta argued in an article that passwords have proven to be an ineffective method for enterprises.
The Passwordless Future | Okta ↗
What happened
- The article cites an Okta-commissioned Opinium survey of 4,013 workers across the UK, France and the Netherlands, with responses collected in May 2019.
- Okta states it is combining Single Sign-On and Adaptive MFA with industry-standard authenticators and biometrics to replace passwords.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Content positions passwordless authentication as enterprise workforce security; overlaps Signicat's authentication line only partially, as the article targets enterprise workforce access rather than customer identity.
