The Compelling Case for Risk-Based Adaptive Authentication

Mobile biometrics are enabling businesses to move away from insecure and cumbersome passwords for authentication. Fingerprint, facial, voice, and behavioral biometrics are becoming more popular with both consumers and employees. These solutions have both benefits and risks.

While it is not only important to offer secure and user-friendly authentication it is also of paramount importance that mobile identities comply with organizational access policies. Therefore, reliable digital identities and strong authentication is the foundation for securing critical processes in government, finance and most enterprise verticals.

Risk-based adaptive authentication can work in conjunction with mobile identity solutions to evaluate a variety of risk factors and choose appropriate authentication and authorization challenges to users, based on customer-configurable policies.

In this webinar you will learn about:

• Trusted next generation identification, verification and authentication in a mobile world.
• Risks and benefits of said technologies.
• Common customer challenges such as data breaches, compliance with regulations and an increasing mobile workforce.
• How to implement risk-based adaptive authentication and a non-disruptive, seamless deployment approach.
