ADVANTAGES & BENEFITS OF
PASSWORDLESS AUTHENTICATION

Streamlined registration and login rather than creative user accounts

Authentication is an initial obstacle. Both the registration and a login mean effort for the user. With modern registration and authentication mechanisms, you can keep these barriers as low as possible. As a result, you get to know your users, identify user potential and address your user personally and with contextual relevance.

Through the various password-free authentication procedures of cidaas, you can offer different login procedures and the user can choose his preferred login. The registration process can also be streamlined through mechanisms such as progressive profiling. You learn more about your user step by step by requesting further information on a specific occasion.

Convenient authentications across all channels

Traditional passwords are obsolete, partly because they are difficult to type on mobile devices – too small keys, too many typos. This takes time and it costs desire to use the application.

Biometric features, uniquely generated codes or social login: cidaas out-of-the-box allows you to offer your users simple, fast and secure password alternatives. Surprise your users with more convenience through password-free authentication and in the real world with Digital Access Management.

No more expensive password-forgetting processes

As users already have many, different accounts and various passwords, each additional account is a challenge. Due to the number of passwords, it is simply not possible to remember them all. At home, users may be reluctant to perform the Forgot Password process, but on the mobile device, users may be more prone to resentment. Attract loyal customers through a convenient login and personalized addresses.

The number of passwords and password changing process takes time, even for employees using in-house applications. The password forgetting process is also time-consuming and expensive. With cidaas you can make your processes efficient, especially with cidaas Single-Sign-On – one identity across all channels.

Passwords are insecure

For a long time, the BSI (German Federal Office for Safety) has issued guidelines regarding the point at which a password is classified as secure and the interval at which a new password should be issued. The fact is that the security of a password depends on the user. In addition, it is easier for criminals to crack passwords if it is known what requirements apply to the password. Finally, a password can also be passed on.

Passwords have some disadvantages. Therefore, the slogan should be: “Bye password! Hello modern login!”

For access to particularly sensitive accounts, security can be further increased through two-factor authentication.
