Biometrics 101
 |
Data breaches are on the rise, increasing to a staggering 36 billion exposed records in 2020 (source: Risk Based Security 2020).
Passwords – even strong ones – are vulnerable to routine theft and interception and are the cause of 80% of data breaches. By requiring an additional piece of information to authenticate, such as fingerprint, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) blocks 99.9% of enterprise account hacks (Microsoft Study 2019).
Biometric credentials are superior to traditional SMS texts or security questions since they cannot be intercepted without the user being aware.
This latest 2-minute video and supporting thought-piece from Kensington explain the basics of biometric security and demonstrates the steps you can take to keep your organisation’s data and integrity secure at all times.
