Getting rid of passwords will solve many security problems, make IT easier to administer, and improve user experience. However, promising as certain passwordless identity verification technologies appear, adoption has lagged. Contributing factors include a reliance on devices, incompatibility with cloud and SaaS, and privacy concerns. Universal SSO (uSSO), a new technology that enables single sign-on (SSO) without integration, offers a potential way forward. This paper explains the potential for a passwordless world, what’s standing in its way, and how the barriers to its realization can be removed.
In this whitepaper, you’ll learn:
- Why passwords still create major security and usability challenges.
- The key obstacles preventing widespread passwordless adoption.
- How Universal SSO (uSSO) overcomes these challenges to enable a passwordless future.
