SUMMARY:Eliminating Passwords: Does Abolishing the Password Create Stronger Security?
DESCRIPTION:Eliminating Passwords\nDoes Abolishing the Password Create Stronger Security?\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tuesday\, February 16\, 2021\n6:00 pm to 8:00 pm \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Passwords are a source of endless frustration — for both users and organizations. According to Verizon’s Data Breach Investigation Report\, 81% of data breaches are caused by compromised\, weak\, and reused passwords. They often lead to employee downtime and abandoned shopping carts. In today’s networked economy\, passwords may no longer be a suitable tool for protecting access. \nMoreover\, password issues can have a huge financial impact on businesses\, as a result of recovering from data breaches\, employee downtime\, and rebuilding corporate reputations. In 2020\, cybercrime cost the global economy $2.9M every minute. Even regular maintenance itself is extremely expensive\, with most enterprises spending more than $1M per year just to reset passwords. And the problem is getting worse. Data breaches have both a significant short-term impact — with an average cost of $8.9M per breach — and long-term consequences\, as billions of login credentials from these breaches are circulated across the dark web. \nFortunately\, help is on the way. Several startups are working on new solutions that could eliminate the need for passwords by replacing them with simpler and stronger forms of authentication\, often leveraging physical security keys and biometrics. These new authentication technologies have the potential to completely transform digital security. \nIn our upcoming VLAB panel discussion\, industry experts and entrepreneurs will discuss the future of password-less authentication and how companies can build it into their security plans. \n\nWhat are the current in-market solutions and how effective are they?\nHow can companies successfully transition to password-less authentication?\nWhat are the opportunities for entrepreneurs and technologists?\n\nJoin us on February 16 to find out. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Moderator\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Andrew Shikiar\, Executive Director & CMO\, FIDO Alliance \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Panelists\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Ori Eisen\, Founder & CEO\, Trusona \nStina Ehrensvärd\, CEO & Co-founder\, Yubico \nCandace Worley\, CPO\, Ping Identity \nAsheem Chandna\, Partner\, Greylock Partners \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Check out these videos from our event partners: \nTrusona \nYubico\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Free Online Event \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nA Note about Ticket Sales \n\n\nWe understand that many people may be having a rough time during the COVID-19 pandemic.
