Key challenges
Identifying each identity and device requesting access is the first principle of the Zero Trust model. Most enterprises have accepted this as fact and are putting the right security measures in place to protect against unauthorized access, but it’s not easy.
A modern authentication service must address the following challenges:
Unauthorised access
User identities and accounts are increasingly being compromised. Are you sure that the users who log in are really who they say they are?
User experience
Increased friction reduces satisfaction and increases abandonment rates. Can you balance stronger authentication with user experience?
Regulatory compliance
The U.S. government has mandated the use of phishing-resistant login credentials. How long will it be before your industry requires the same for your internal and external users?
