Problem
Traditional password-based identity and access management systems are vulnerable to phishing, deepfake attacks, and other credential-based threats, creating significant access risks for organizations. Existing multi-factor authentication (MFA) methods often rely on phishable factors like push notifications and one-time passcodes, leaving them susceptible to bypass attacks. Furthermore, these systems often lack continuous validation of user and device trustworthiness during active sessions.
Solution
Beyond Identity offers a secure access platform that eliminates password-related risks by utilizing device-bound, phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication. The platform employs patented Twin-Auth technology to validate both the user and the device, ensuring only trusted users on secure devices gain access. By continuously monitoring device security posture and enforcing access policies, the solution goes beyond point-in-time authentication to mitigate risks throughout the entire session. This approach makes successful phishing attacks impossible and defends against AI impersonation and deepfake attempts, providing a more complete and user-friendly approach to identity and access management.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes modern teams and organizations seeking to eliminate access risks associated with traditional password-based systems and legacy MFA solutions, as well as those aiming to achieve zero-trust maturity.
