Authentifusion: Clarifying the Future of User Authentication - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

In January, PwC’s The Global State of Information Security declared its top 8 goals for 2016. Among these it asserted CISOs need to focus on “Replacing passwords with advanced authentication.” With terms like advanced authentication being thrown into a mix that already includes “adaptive,” “contextual,” “behavioral,” “risk-based,” “multifactor” and dozens more, it’s easy to give up and let confusion reign over the authentication space. And the idea of replacing passwords altogether? Is that even possible?

In this webcast, iovation’s Michael Thelander will clarify the authentication landscape and make sense of a rapidly evolving field that brings together the needs of both information security and fraud prevention teams.
