We’re on a mission to help the higher-ed community claim freedom from passwords.

To assist colleges and universities looking to better serve and protect their users and users’ data, we are committed to take 50 institutions passwordless through our “Freedom to be Passwordless” program.

The Problem With Passwords

Passwords are the keys to unlock your online profiles and applications you use on a daily basis and, innately, a weak form of user authentication. Stolen, lost or forgotten passwords represent a huge security risk and a substantial productivity drain to organizations.

Going passwordless lets IT reclaim its purpose of having complete visibility over identity and access management. IT can control the security of their organization and gain a better visibility into specific factors used by users.


Enhanced-User-Experience

Enhanced User Experience

Authenticating users through factors that they already possess, such as their mobile device (mobile authenticator apps, biometrics, SMS OTP) or laptop (Email OTP, Fingerprint, Face Recognition) enhance end user experiences with no lengthy passwords to remember.
