- SMS text messages
We're also completely passwordless— there are no passwords used anywhere ever. It's also a clear winner for user experience because Beyond Identity's eliminates cumbersome passwords and annoying second factors.

What does NIST say about phishing-resistant MFA?
Since 2017 NIST has called for avoiding MFA requiring a code or call sent to a second device. NIST standards state: “Use of the PSTN [Public Switched Telephone Network or a phoneline connection in human-speak] for out-of-band [authentication] verification is RESTRICTED.
How does WebAuthn work with phishing-resistant MFA?
WebAuthN aka Web Authentication API, in the long form, provides the underpinnings for passwordless, phishing-resistant authentication for websites via supported browsers, including Safari, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.
WebAuthn and the FIDO Alliance’s corresponding Client-to-Authenticator Protocol (CTAP) combine capabilities to make up the FIDO2 specification.
