There is widespread recognition that our primary methods for authenticating users - passwords, augmented with some flavor of weak multi-factor authentication (MFA) - are wholly inadequate. That's why the move to secure authentication is critical right now as organizations move to a zero trust security model. Download this whitepaper to learn:

• How zero trust is the cybersecurity community's leading response to security challenges
• Why phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication lays the foundation for zero trust and advances security
• The important role of authentication in a zero trust architecture

While many organizations have chosen to upgrade their endpoint detection and response tools and move from virtual private networks (VPNs) to Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solutions, many are also looking to ensure the users-the identity of the users and the device(s) they are allowed to use-are valid and secure. Marrying identity-centric access to network-centric access is the essence of zero trust and authentication plays a critical role. Download this checklist to:

• Learn what goes into a Zero Trust Authentication solution
• Key capabilities needed to achieve Zero Trust Authentication for your extended workforce, contractors, partners, and customers
• How to thwart identity-centric breaches with Zero Trust Authentication

Over the years, a number of password alternatives have been developed. We've seen Common Access Cards (CAC), smartcards, and biometrics-just to name a few. However, passwords continue to be used as a backup for these methods. As long as a password is used, you remain vulnerable to password-based threats like phishing attacks, SIM swaps, and more. That's why the move to passwordless authentication continues to grow in popularity. Download this guide to learn:

• How passwordless authentication replaces traditional MFA's weak factors with significantly stronger ones
• Why the user experience of passwordless authentication is improved by removing friction from the login process
• Clarity on what password authentication is, how it works, and what to look for in a passwordless solution

On January 26, 2022, the Office of the Management and Budget (OMB) issued a memo with the subject "Moving the U.S. Government Towards Zero Trust Cybersecurity Principles." This memo sets the groundwork for creating a zero trust architecture for federal agencies, with the goal of meeting this objective by the end of 2024. Download this brief to:
