With any journey it is understood that things may not go exactly to plan, and despite the challenges, there is a clear desire in the market to realize a passwordless reality. One firm I spoke with told me, “When I think of passwordless, I think about the next five years, not the next 12 months.”
Can passwordless authentication be trusted? “If someone steals my password, I can change my password. If someone steals my fingerprint, what do I do then?” Every new feature we introduce to our users is potentially a new tactic we provide our adversaries. But don't worry, we made an app for that.
