Passwordless Authentication
Passwordless Authentication eliminates traditional passwords, enhancing security and user experience through biometrics, security tokens, magic links, and passkeys. Instead of relying on passwords, authentication is based on fingerprint scans, facial recognition, hardware tokens, or one-time codes. Key benefits include phishing resistance, reduced IT costs, and improved access security, though challenges include implementation complexity and device dependency. In Keycloak, passwordless authentication is supported via WebAuthn, OTP, and magic links, enabling secure and seamless authentication experiences.
