Duo Passwordless

Hey I'm Justine Brady with Cisco, and today we'll explore how Duo passwordless approach strengthens security while simplifying the login experience. In this short session, we'll take a quick look at why passwordless matters, explore how Duo makes it work, review some of the key benefits and finish with how you can get started in your own environment.00:00Passwords have become one of the biggest security liabilities in modern IT. They're reused, easily fished, and a constant source of frustration for users and admins alike. In fact, over 60 % of breaches still start with compromised credentials. Passwordless authentication changes that. It eliminates the pass.00:20Password entirely from the login process reducing attack surfaces while improving the user experience. Duo passwordless builds on duo's strong foundation of MFA and device trust to deliver true passwordless authentication. It's phishing resistant by design using FIDO two and web authentic standards that rely.00:39Get on device based cryptographic keys instead of shared secrets.00:59The result, a single seamless tap or biometric check to authenticate, NO passwords, NO friction, and NO compromise in security. When a user logs in, they authenticate with a registered device like Windows Hello, touch ID or a FIDO two security key. Duo verifies the user and device.01:04Locally using secure FIDO two credentials. No password is ever transmitted, so there's nothing for attackers to intercept or reuse. This is passwordless security in its purest form. Strong authentication delivered simply.01:24With passwordless, you cut down on password reset tickets, achieve a stronger security posture, and give users a faster, more seamless login experience. And because it's powered by Duo's Cloud platform, you still get the same visibility, policy control, and device insights that Duo is known for.01:39And the best part, you don't need to start from scratch. Duo passwordless integrates with Duo single sign on, Duo directory, AD, or your existing identity provider, giving you flexibility in how you deploy. You can start with pilot groups or lower risk applications, gather feedback and scale organization.01:58Wide when you're ready.02:18Passwords have had their time. It's time for something better. With Duo passwordless, you get stronger protection, less friction, and a seamless path to a passwordless feature. To enable this in your environment, visit duo.com/docs/passwordless.
