Keyless has launched a Web SDK that allows for multi-channel biometric authentication through web browsers on mobile and desktops. It facilitates seamless user transitions between apps and browsers while maintaining a high level of security. This launch represents a significant step in meeting user demands for flexible authentication methods while preventing fraud such as phishing.
Keyless has introduced a multi-channel biometric authentication solution that can effectively operate through web browsers on both mobile and desktop platforms. This Web SDK capability allows seamless cross-channel authentication, enabling users to authenticate via apps, browsers, and various devices without interruption. This technological advancement focuses on enhancing user experience while maintaining high-security standards.
Fabian Eberle, co-founder and COO of Keyless, described the launch of the Web SDK as a significant enhancement in the authentication landscape. He noted that, “Users are increasingly demanding flexibility in authentication, but organizations cannot afford to compromise on security.” The SDK permits enrollment and authentication to take place within a single browser session, negating the need for an additional device and providing users with the flexibility to switch between channels seamlessly.
Keyless assures that its web capability adds an extra layer of security, specifically designed to mitigate potential phishing attacks by ensuring that all payment processes occur within the same browser session. Additionally, the Web SDK integrates seamlessly with existing passkey technologies, ensuring only the enrolled individual can access their account.
Moreover, the Keyless Web SDK is compatible with OpenID Connect, facilitating user authentication for both customers and employees through their current Single Sign-On pages, thus eliminating older methods like passwords, push notifications, or SMS one-time passwords. This integration not only simplifies the authentication process but also reinforces security protocols.
Keyless is strategically expanding its presence in North America, following a successful $2 million funding round and has recently been evaluated by the NIST for biometric face verification. This expansion reflects the company’s commitment to advancing biometric authentication capabilities in diverse environments.
Keyless’s launch of the multi-channel Web SDK represents a significant advancement in biometric authentication technology, enabling flexible and secure user experiences across mobile and desktop browsers. With capabilities that integrate modern security practices while eliminating the need for traditional authentication methods, Keyless is poised for growth in the North American market and beyond.
