Passwordless Employee Login

Beyond Passwordless: Continuous Assurance for the Enterprise

Eliminate password friction while strengthening security. Enterprise-grade passwordless authentication with endpoint trust, mobile authority, and continuous assurance throughout the session—for any industry.

The Challenge

Authentication At Global Scale Is An Operational Problem

Enterprises are forced to trade time for security—every single day. Even 1–2 minutes of friction per login compounds into millions of lost hours annually.

1-2 min

Friction per login compounds into millions of lost hours annually

100,000+

Employees authenticate multiple times per day at global scale

Productivity

Stronger controls often mean slower access in regulated workflows

What Enterprises Must Enforce

  • Strong authentication
  • Phishing resistance
  • Auditability
  • Regulatory & compliance requirements

What Actually Happens

  • • Repeated MFA interrupts work
  • • Hardware tokens fail or delay access
  • • Users adapt with unsafe shortcuts
  • • Walk-away sessions increase insider risk
Flexible Authentication

Multiple Passwordless Methods

Choose the authentication methods that work best for your workforce—all enterprise-owned and phishing-resistant.

Passkeys

FIDO2-compliant biometric authentication using device-native security (Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello).

Mobile App Push

Secure push notifications with optional symbol matching for additional verification confidence.

Hardware Security Keys

YubiKey and other FIDO2-compliant authenticators for phishing-resistant authentication.

Secured QR Code

Scan-to-login using the SecureAuth mobile app for quick, secure workstation access.

NFC/RFID Cards

Tap-to-authenticate using existing employee badges or dedicated security cards.

OIDC/SAML Integration

Connect with any IdP implementation via OIDC/SAML or Direct API Integration.

Four Pillars Of Modern Identity Infrastructure

Beyond passwordless: how leading enterprises are rethinking identity for security and operational resilience.

Pre-OS & Session Control

Endpoint Trust

Controls who is allowed to have a workstation session at all—before the OS and apps are usable, including shared and offline endpoints.

  • Pre-OS authentication before desktop loads
  • Shared & rotating workstation support
  • Agent-anchored identity (not browser-anchored)
  • Offline & degraded-network enforcement
Endpoint-Anchored Access

Agent-to-Web SSO

Users authenticate once at the endpoint and get seamless access to web applications without browser prompts, cookies, or repeated MFA.

  • Single sign-on bridge from endpoint to web apps
  • Eliminates browser-based MFA prompts
  • No cookie dependencies
  • Seamless session handoff
Cryptographic Root of Trust

Mobile as Authority

Mobile app acts as root of trust, pairing authority, and secure control of the workstation—not just MFA approval.

  • Enterprise passkey & credential authority
  • Session control (unlock, lock, recover)
  • Offline authentication & recovery
  • Primary authentication & user presence
Beyond the Browser

Enterprise Passkeys

Enterprise-owned passkeys that work beyond the browser, including offline and recovery scenarios.

  • Passkeys are enterprise-owned, not vendor-owned
  • Passkeys work beyond the browser
  • Real phishing resistance with Agent + Mobile
  • Offline and recovery scenarios are enterprise-safe
The Experience

Passwordless With Continuous Assurance

1

User signs into endpoint using 2FA

Passkey, Mobile App push, OTP, Secured QR Code, NFC/RFID, or any FIDO2 compliant authenticator.

2

SSO Bridge provides seamless access

Endpoint login automatically provides seamless access to all web applications—no additional prompts.

3

Mobile App Trust for session control

Remote or proximity-based lock keeps workstations secure when users step away.

4

Continuous Assurance Sessions

Policy-driven continuous verification throughout the session, not just at login.

Operational Resilience

Works Even When The Network Doesn't

Authentication and policy enforcement continue even without cloud connectivity. Critical for manufacturing floors, remote locations, healthcare facilities, and regulated environments.

Offline Authentication

Secure access without network dependency

Degraded Network

Graceful fallback in poor connectivity

Policy Enforcement

Local enforcement at endpoints

Offline Recovery

Enterprise-safe credential recovery
