Secfense plans to start working on a Passwordless Broker

Secfense plans to start working on its next product, Passwordless Broker, in 2024. This innovative platform will enable organizations to move to passwordless authentication easily and non-intrusively for any application, regardless of the technology used.

Passwordless Broker – Successor to the User Access Security Broker

Passwordless Broker will be a logical continuation and development of the User Access Security Broker (UASB), which, since its introduction in 2018, has helped companies implement multi-factor authentication (MFA), including the implementation of the FIDO2 standard resistant to phishing attacks.

Secfense Mission: Fast Track to Passwordless Future

From the beginning, Secfense has set itself the goal of enabling organizations to migrate from traditional passwords to passwordless authentication easily and quickly. The first step in this journey was the UASB product, which allowed the implementation of MFA, laying the foundation for further enhancing security against password leaks. This product has gained recognition in many sectors, including banking, insurance, and government institutions.

The next step was the Secfense IdP platform, introduced in 2023, which enabled the implementation of passwordless authentication for applications that use the SAML standard (mainly SaaS apps). IdP is currently undergoing PoV (proof of value) tests in various large organizations, including those in the telecommunications sector.

Passwordless Broker rollout plan

The Passwordless Broker, whose development is planned to begin in 2024, is designed to enable a seamless transition to passwordless authentication across all applications within a company. Secfense plans for this product to allow organizations to implement passwordless authentication without needing application code modification, a unique feature in the market of passwordless solutions.

Passwordless Broker’s role in cybersecurity strategy

The Passwordless Broker is intended to be the culmination of Secfense’s long-term plan, offering organizations technology that will enable them to move away from passwords completely. Instead, they will be able to use safer authentication methods resistant to phishing and other social engineering techniques. It is also worth emphasizing that both the implementation of the technology and the subsequent migration from passwords to passwordless authentication will be virtually unnoticeable to the end users. This is an integral part of the passwordless revolution and Secfense’s approach to passwordless adoption, as increased security goes hand in hand with improved user experience. The introduction of the Secfense Passwordless Broker product aims to provide a solution that will allow wide adoption of passwordless authentication in various technology environments without additional complications for IT departments and without impacting end users.

Summary

In 2024, Secfense plans to begin work on Passwordless Broker, a technology expected to allow organizations to increase their cyber security by eliminating passwords. This is a response to the growing demand for passwordless and, at the same time, secure and more convenient authentication methods in corporate environments. As the cyber threat landscape continues to change, Passwordless Broker is expected to be the next step in the evolution of information security.

Testimonials

We are faced with new challenges every day. We must always be one step ahead of the attackers and know what they are going to do before they do it. We are convinced that the User Access Security Broker will bring security to a new level, both for those working at the office and from home. For us, working with Secfense is an opportunity to exchange experience with developers who put great value on out-of-the-box thinking.

As part of the pre-implementation analysis, we verified that users utilize a wide range of client platforms: desktop computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, and traditional mobile phones. Each of these devices differs in technological advancement, features, and level of security. Because of this, and also due to the recommendation of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (UKNF), we decided to introduce additional protection in the form of multi-factor authentication mechanisms based on FIDO. As a result, users of our applications can log in safely, avoiding common cyber threats such as phishing, account takeover, and theft of their own and their clients’ data.

Before investing in Secfense, we had the opportunity to talk to its existing clients. Their reactions were unanimous: wow, it’s so easy to use. We were particularly impressed by the fact that implementing their solution does not require the involvement of IT developers. It gives Secfense a huge advantage over the competition, and at the same time opens the door to potential customers who so far were afraid of changes related to the implementation of multi-factor authentication solutions.

Even when the network and infrastructure are secured enough, social engineering and passwords can be used to gain control of the system by attackers. Multifactor authentication is the current trend. Secfense addresses this and allows you to build zero trust security and upgrade your current systems to passwordless applications within minutes, solving this problem right away,” said Eduard Kučera, Partner at Presto Ventures and cybersecurity expert – former Director in hugely successful Czech multinational cyber security firm Avast.

One of the biggest challenges the world is facing today is securing our identity online. That’s why we were so keen to have Secfense in our portfolio. They make it possible to introduce strong authentication in an automated way. Until now, organizations had to selectively protect applications because the deployment of new technology was very hard, or even impossible. With Secfense, the implementation of multi-factor authentication is no longer a problem, and all organizations can use the highest standards of authentication security.

Two-factor authentication is known to be one of the best ways to protect against phishing; however, its implementation has always been difficult. Secfense helped us solve that problem. With their security broker, we were able to introduce various 2FA methods on our web applications at once.
