As part of ongoing research into the cybersecurity market, Solutions Review frequently covers the latest in data breaches, cyber-attacks, and authentication failures.

Beyond Identity and various industry partners have launched a new category of zero trust technology: Zero Trust Authentication (ZTA), developed in response to the failure of traditional authentication methods – a problem exacerbated by the increasing number of cyber attacks.

Traditional password-based multi-factor authentication now presents a very low hurdle for attackers. An authentication process that is both phishing-resistant and passwordless is therefore a key component of a Zero Trust framework.

Beyond Identity, a trailblazer in Zero Trust Authentication (ZTA), has been named as a finalist in the 2023 SC Awards for Best Authentication Technology.

In honor of World Password Day, Apple, Google, and Microsoft on Thursday announced plans to expand support for the passwordless sign-in standard created by the FIDO Alliance and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
