The problem with passwords is that they can be guessed, hacked, or coerced out of consumers through social engineering or phishing attacks. So, why not eliminate the main source of insecurity by going passwordless?
\nThe recently launched Passwordless Login with Magic Link or OTP feature by LoginRadius gets authentication right by hitting all the right chords—streaming consumer experience, enhancing account security, and improving adaptive security (to name a few).
\nPasswordless Login with Magic Link or OTP reduces friction during the registration and login processes. Once the customer enters the Email Address or Phone Number, they receive a magic link via email or OTP on the phone number. As the consumer clicks the magic link or enters the OTP, LoginRadius creates an account (provided it doesn’t already exist), and the consumer automatically logs into the account.
\n
Passwordless Login with Magic Link or OTP is designed by LoginRadius to help your business in the following ways:
\nLoginRadius also supports various implementation and deployment methods that you can choose depending on your business needs.
\nTimes are changing. The majority of consumers do not look forward to creating and entering passwords anymore. Passwordless Login with Magic Link or OTP by LoginRadius is the one-click solution for consumers’ fast-paced authentication needs. It helps businesses improve their security posture while providing a better consumer experience.

Back in the day, when consumers wanted to access different sites and applications, they had to register first, and then log in with their usernames and passwords every single time. Such experiences are no longer acceptable to consumers and they choose to opt-out of such services.
\nThe recently launched Federated Identity Management by LoginRadius is an arrangement to simplify the implementation of Single Sign-On (SSO) and user experience across applications.
\nFederated Identity Management by LoginRadius helps businesses and applications use a single set of identity data. Consumers need not create multiple accounts for multiple organizations to access their web applications. These applications do not communicate with each other directly and standard SSO protocols like JWT, SAML, OAuth 2.0, OIDC etc are used to establish the communication.

Identity-as-a-service or IDaaS refers to cloud-based identity and access management solutions that are offered on a subscription basis. At its core, IDaaS delivers access, intelligence, and identity governance capabilities to consumers' systems.
\nInterestingly, IdaaS has been experiencing exponential growth in recent years. So, to understand this rapid surge in the best IDaaS providers, let's go back a little.
\nConsumers have already been exploring and utilizing the online facilities—from transactions, education, work, shopping, entertainment, to medicines—for some time now. They want frictionless, non-invasive, and seamless solutions.
\nSo, how are companies delivering instant, personalized gratification? The basis for most is identity.
\nConsumers want identity solutions to be easy and simple-to-use.
\nData privacy is another prerequisite necessity. In fact, a survey by Gemalto finds out that 71% of consumers choose to opt-out of a company that experienced a data breach. Talk about a dealbreaker!
\nLikewise, there are also key questions about data privacy, ownership, control, and scalability. Scoring these areas on a firm ground will make a good ID solution. A growing number of companies are already working on this goal.
\nThe best IDaaS providers are evolving, and new ones are emerging. How do you choose the right one?
\n![\"Best](\"/0dba2e23e64a52e959fe1feeb8344cc8/Best-IDaaS-solution-1.webp\")
1. It should connect to mixed platform environments.
\nA lot of organizations (especially enterprise-level) still prefer the hybrid approach to host their business applications, i.e. both on-premises and in the cloud. The best IDaaS providers will offer consumers seamless access from a variety of devices, or mostly when legacy solutions are involved.
\nIt should not matter where the applications are hosted or accessed, the IDaaS solution should simplify integration and create a simplified, smooth, and unified consumer experience.
\n2. It should deliver better security.
\nWith a modern cloud identity platform comes security with modern techniques. Identity theft and network compromise are a big problem that IT managers face today, and the lack of passwords is a major explanation for these breaches.
\nThere should be a large number of security techniques included as the identity management platform transitions to the cloud. Examples include one-way password hashing, salting that secures communication between all vulnerable end-points.
\n3. It should verify and manage all identities.
\nWith modern industries requiring robust access and security policies, the best IDaaS provider should include identity management tools for different use cases.
\nFor example, when new devices, applications, and consumers are introduced, or third-party relationships are integrated, the access requirement and priorities are also changed. Your IDaaS provider should be able to access authorized resources without having to authenticate and sign in separately to each application.
\nMoreover, your IDaaS solutions provider should also include frameworks for single sign-on (SSO) and federated identity with multi-factor authentication (MFA) that removes silos and enables uninterrupted network environments.
\n4. It should offer a complete app access lifecycle management.
\nWhen a new user joins your organization or an existing user takes on a different role, your IDaaS solution should make provisioning easier with automatic account creation, role-based authorization management, single sign-on, and automated account deprovisioning.
\nA comprehensive, automated app access lifecycle management eliminates helpdesk calls, reduces IT burden, and saves time. It is also easier to offboard users by instantly removing access and deactivating app accounts.
\n5. It should offer multi-factor authentication (MFA).
\nConsumers aren't confined to just the one network, device, or applications today. They have to remember a lot of passwords for different accounts. But then, passwords alone cannot be trusted to keep accounts secure. You need a stronger authentication factor at a granular level and MFA should do the trick.
\nThe best IDaaS provider should include MFA with (at least) the following combination:
\nAlso, ensure that your IDaaS provider offers custom configurations, whenever necessary for optimal performance. Make sure it is affordable, flexible, and designed to scale (forecasting your rapid growth).

Social engineering attacks have become a common occurrence against enterprises over the years. In fact, it has grown increasingly sophisticated.
\nNeedless-to-say there is no ‘stop sign’ for cybercrimes any time soon. Instead, hackers have been coming up with more creative methods to deceive employees and people into sharing sensitive credentials.
\nIt is high time that companies conduct proper research and utilize the right tools to keep ahead of the fraudsters.
\nThis infographic will cover what social engineering is and the best practices to avoid becoming a victim of the most common social engineering attacks.
\nSocial engineering is a cyberattack where criminals psychologically manipulate unsuspecting users into making security mistakes and giving up their confidential information.
\nSocial engineering involves the criminal using human emotions like fear, curiosity, greed, anger, etc. to trick victims into clicking malicious links or physical tailgating attacks.
\nSocial engineering attackers have one of two goals:
\nHere is a quick overview of the most common social engineering scams used against modern enterprises and individuals.
\nPhishing is the most common and widely successful form of social engineering attack. The fraudster uses trickery and deceit via email, chat, web ad, or website to persuade a person or organization to expose their PII and other valuables.
\nFor example, the fraudster might pretend to represent a bank, a government organization, or a major corporation trusted by the naive victim. The source can be an email asking the email recipients to click on a link to log in to their accounts. They are then redirected to a fake website appearing to be legitimate, and that's where the attack takes place.
\n![\"passwords](\"/71f736567e16df3b354a57e3b45ca355/SET-1.webp\")
Spear Phishing is another form of social engineering where the fraudster does some background research on the victim's personal and professional life to establish the right pretext.
\nFor example, the fraudster might reveal to the victim that they are planning a surprise birthday for a friend and are seeking help to pull it off.
\nBaiting is when the fraudster uses greed or curiosity to trap the victim with false promises and trick them into handing their login credentials.
\nFor example, the fraudster may leave a malware-infected, authentic-looking flash drive (or bait) in the least suspicious area like the bathroom or elevator of a company. The bait will also have enticing labels like a payroll list or appraisal list that will be tempting enough to insert on a computer.
\nTailgating happens when someone without proper authentication enters into a restricted area by physically bypassing the security measures in place.
\nFor example, the attacker can strike up conversations with an employee in the lobby or the parking lot and use the familiarity to enter the office premises and get past the front desk.
\nScareware is a malware tactic where the fraudster perceives a threat to deceive users into visiting malware-infected sites and buying malicious software.
\nExamples include PC Health Check Programs and Antivirus Updaters that scare victims into buying diagnostic and repair services they do not need.
\nOne of the best ways to protect against social engineering is to understand the warning signs and steer clear of attacks. A few of the warning signs include:
\nBe careful of what you share. And no, you don't need to be paranoid about these attacks. Preventing them is possible. The following are a few ways that help.

The role of consumer identity management in the business world is undeniable. In the past, identity was primarily used as a deciding factor to authenticate transactions. If people were successful in verifying who they were, their transactions were approved.
\nToday, identity is more than just about security. It drives businesses' trust, customer experience, emotional connection, and brand value. And, that's incredibly enticing to a Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).
\nBut many of the emerging applications of identity are also posing serious concerns with Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and CISOs. Remediating those threats could mean CMOs having to compromise with customer experience—something they have been working so hard to improve.
\nSo, now the question arises. Can a CMO, CIO, and CISO work as a team when they crossroads? It turns out, they can (for the greater good of an enterprise).
\nAn example is how these C-suite professionals are treating identity as a shared cornerstone that keeps consumers engaged and vulnerabilities under control.
\nA modern-day consumer identity management (CIAM) platform safely collects and maintains consumer identity and profile data, along with securing access to software, devices, and other services in the network. This is a reason why CMOs, CISOs, and CIOs of large enterprises see CIAM as a business enabler.
\nCIAM is the solution that directly controls your experiences with consumers. Elements like registration, authentication, account management, consent and preference management, and consumer data security take the lead to the most extent.
\nThe C-suite security, information, and marketing leaders advocate CIAM platforms that are seamless and consistent across multiple devices and touchpoints.
\nA few other features they look for include:
\n![\"Cyber](\"/eccb15472031c29e474058c5e8f0e586/Cyber-risk-for-CMOs-CIOs-and-CISOs.webp\")
In the past, cyber risks were often viewed as highly technical. Earlier leaders used to perceive security threats as an IT issue, but that's not the case today.
\nNow, there is a shift in executives and board directors' mindset. They perceive cybersecurity as a vital element of enterprises' business strategies.
\nWhen a cybercrime happens, it takes away much more than just consumer data. From finances to brand reputation, everything is at stake.
\nTherefore, cybersecurity is a critical problem for the boardroom, and every organizational stakeholder is focusing their attention on it.
\nIt takes equal effort from CIOs, CSOs, and CISOs to mitigate the architectural complexities that cybercriminals prey on. To get a headstart, the security team can develop holistic frameworks that can be later adopted and extended across the board.
\n![\"Enterprise](\"/860c267222fd012ab48fe9e6c26d0129/EB-The-Enterprise-Buyer%E2%80%99s-Guide-to-Consumer-Identity.webp\")
While the CISO looks to find security loopholes in an enterprise, the CIO aims to implement new services and leverage benefits. The CMO is on the front line of dealing with brand value and consumer data.
\nWith such diverse job roles, consumer identity management can still meet the CIO, CMO, CISO's goals. Wondering how? Here are five ways:
\nAs the new \"work from anywhere\" situation continues to intensify, consumers and employees are becoming the new parameters for security.
\nA consumer identity management platform adopts a holistic approach to help enterprises manage, monitor, and verify all users, accounts, or devices attempting to access the enterprises' infrastructure.
\nWith the regulatory landscape becoming denser than ever, consumers are particular about their data sharing and preference protocols.
\nConsumer identity and access management have become a growing priority for security, information, and marketing leaders. They want their enterprises to be compliant with global regulations and enforces strict data sharing laws across multiple vendors, platforms, and channels.
\nCybercriminals can easily hack into enterprises because the latter aren't mostly competent in applying patches to known vulnerabilities. Board members and security executives should not only be responsible for identifying risks but also to reduce them.
\nA CIAM platform helps these professionals prioritize risks and implement the right fixes with features like multi-factor authentication, passwordless login, single sign-on (SSO), and more.
\nAnother crucial implementation that CIOs, CMOs, and CISOs agree upon is the need for consistent availability and up to zero downtime.
\nA consumer identity management solution offers scalability that possibly demonstrates a frankly extreme degree. It is always ready for potential surges and dips in consumer activities.
\nGood experiences call for happy consumers. A consumer identity management platform offers all the features to revolutionize consumer experience in every possible way. They also add up to more revenue and lower acquisition costs.
\nFor instance, with a seamless login experience, CIAM encourages consumers to try all the enterprise's digital offerings. This way, consumers are more embedded in a digital space without extra effort. Other examples include the addition of advanced analytics, integration, unified consumer view, and more.
