User authentication involves various credentials and multi-factor authentication (MFA). Common credentials include a username and password, while biometric authentication uses physical traits. MFA enhances security by requiring multiple types of credentials. This includes something you know (like a password), something you have (such as a smartphone or smart card), and something you are (biometrics like fingerprints). Combining these elements significantly strengthens the authentication process.
User authentication is foundational to identity and access management (IAM) which relies on having a trusted digital identity
IAM leaders will seek passwordless authentication methods. MFA. Federated identity (SSO), biometrics.
Convenient user experiences (UX) is imperative, implying short journey-time process. Simple. Intuitive. Consistency across platforms. Speed.
Applying human-centric security design (HCSD) principles and taking a human-first approach to identity-first security can improve both security and user experience (UX). Increases trust and engagement. Improves awareness.
FIDO2 security keys dominating within the next three years (A lot more could be said here)
There is a burgeoning interest in multidevice passkeys (FIDO2 credentials synced across devices)
FIDO2 is an authentication standard that enhances security and user experience by providing a passwordless and multi-factor authentication approach.
Hardware tokens for use with others’ authentication infrastructures or platform-native capabilities are in need. APIs. Identity federation.
Biometric authentication specialists will see increasing opportunities, especially in customer IAM use cases
It is the process of verifying a user's identity without an internet connection by processing all necessary credentials locally on the device, enhancing security by reducing the risk of network-based attacks, providing reliable access regardless of connectivity, and enabling quick, user-friendly authentication methods
It is ideal for secure access control in personal devices and sensitive environments’
An offline biometric authentication device operates in a secure, isolated environment, reducing the risk of network-based attacks, including those posed by quantum computers.
It should be considered for IAM due to its strong security features, support for multi-factor authentication, portability, centralized management of user identities, resistance to counterfeiting, compliance with regulations, compatibility with existing systems, and ability to enhance audit and accountability processes
Electronic smart card are preferable over other hard tokens due to their enhanced security, multi-application support, user convenience, centralized management, durability, compliance with regulations, and robust auditing capabilities. Multiple use. Easily personalized.
Typical use cases for biometric smart cards in IAM include secure access control, employee identification, digital signatures, financial transactions, healthcare access, e-government services, high-security environments, travel and border control, and remote work security.
Only CardLab can offer a full service with the addition of tokenization
Tokenization is a powerful security technique that replaces sensitive data with tokens to reduce the risk of data breaches, ensure compliance, and protect user privacy while maintaining the functionality of systems and applications. Improves trust.
After authenticating the user, the device generates a token representing the user’s identity. This token is time-sensitive and secure, meaning it can only be used for a single session
CardLab offers biometric authentication built on the components …
- Credentials stored on an electronic smart card
- Token ID via biometrics
- Password free
- Offline ID verification
- Backend token verification
- It’s fully compatible with any existing IT infrastructure
