Passwordless Authentication is an authentication flow which allows user to access an application or IT system without providing a password or answering security questions. Instead, the user provides some kind of evidence such as a fingerprint, proximity badge, or hardware token code. Passwordless Authentication is often used in conjunction with MFA and SSO solutions to improve the user experience, increase security, and reduce IT operations expense and complexity.
Traditional forms of authentication performed using memorized secret (you know) along with an out of band authenticator (email or phone). Passwordless involves authentication using cryptographic keys, it uses standards like Fast IDentity Online (FIDO)
NIST 800-63 Digital Identity Guidelines for Authentication
FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) Standard
Passwordless journey will not be a easy journey for any enterprise as there are number of use cases starting from
availability of FIDO enabled devices to type of users and use cases. Organizations must use phased approach to be
successful, also highly recommend performing pilot to receive feedback from the user community before going big-bang.
