The Case For Modernizing Authentication Methods

Cybersecurity still seems to come with major vulnerabilities, despite all of the recent advancements in technology. The common practice of password-based authentication has become increasingly unsustainable due to the evolution and sophistication of cyber threats – and the burden that these threats place on users. In order to address this, enterprises are opting for more advanced authentication methods such as biometrics and multi-factor authentication. In an article for Forbes Innovation entitled “The Case of Modernizing Authentication Methods,” Chris Dimitriadis explains:

“As much as it often seems like the digital world is moving too fast, the authentication space is one in which we probably have not moved quickly enough. Passwords have played a central role in cybersecurity for many years, but they are no longer adequate as a sole form of authentication in an era of AI-powered threats, brute-force attacks, credential stuffing and password overload that many users experience.”

The integration of innovative and emerging technologies is crucial for implementing more comprehensive cybersecurity. Fr0ntierX allows enterprises to create robust and scalable authentication frameworks that stay ahead of constantly evolving cyber threats by minimizing attack vectors and ensuring data and sensitive information remains encrypted throughout the entire lifecycle. By utilizing asymmetric encryption and Trusted Execution Environments, Fr0ntierX provides an additional layer of protection against advanced persistent threats, thereby safeguarding critical assets and maintaining the trust of users.
