Are Passkeys the Future of Passwordless Authentication
When Google, Apple and Microsoft announced on May 5 that they are going to partner together to usher in the passwordless...
In the ever-evolving digital landscape, binding user biometrics to multiple credentialing attributes, like FIDO Passkeys, tokens and device IDs, becomes a powerful combination, reshaping digital security and online user experiences. Going far beyond traditional authentication, the Anonybit Genie is device-independent, eliminating the fallback on PINs, passwords and even knowledge-based questions to verify identity across the entire user journey.
Establishing an unbreakable connection between a biometric profile and a device or credentialing method during enrollment ensures unbeatable authentication downstream. With Anonybit, you don't need to depend on vulnerable authenticators; instead, you gain a formidable, privacy-centric multi-factor authentication system that's resistant to phishing and account takeover attempts.
Ingest biometric from any source into the decentralized biometric cloud.
Capture the details for the credentialing attribute to bind (PassKey, device information, email, token, backup passphrase, etc.)
Store the attribute in the decentralized data vault.
Link the attribute to the biometric profile.
Upon authentication request, require both the asset and the biometric match to pass.
If needed for account recovery, retrieve the credential from the decentralized data vault.
In an age where cyber threats loom large, safeguarding your digital identity is non-negotiable. Binding acts as a robust defense mechanism, adding an extra layer of protection to safeguarding sensitive information and accounts. By associating a biometric profile to specific credentialing attributes, you create a fortified barrier against future account takeover attacks. The result is strong authentication that doesn’t fall back on phishable credentials, even at the account recovery stage. Here are just a few of the integrations that we support with the binding module.
