Passwordless SSO with AI Risk Scoring

Next-generation authentication that combines WebAuthn passkeys with intelligent risk assessment for seamless yet secure user experiences.

Why Traditional Authentication Falls Short

Legacy password-based systems with static MFA create friction while failing to adapt to modern threat landscapes.

Password Vulnerabilities

Weak passwords, reuse, and credential stuffing attacks compromise 81% of data breaches.

Static MFA Limitations

One-size-fits-all MFA creates unnecessary friction for low-risk scenarios.

Poor User Experience

Complex authentication flows lead to user frustration and productivity loss.

Modern Passwordless Authentication

Combining WebAuthn passkeys with AWS Cognito and AI-powered risk assessment for intelligent, adaptive security.

WebAuthn Passkeys

FIDO2-compliant biometric authentication eliminates passwords while providing cryptographic security backed by hardware.

AWS Cognito Integration

Native AWS integration provides enterprise-grade identity management with seamless scalability and compliance.

AI Risk Scoring

Machine learning algorithms analyze behavioral patterns and contextual signals to dynamically adjust authentication requirements.

How It Works

A simple three-step process that adapts to risk in real-time

1

Passwordless Login

User initiates login with biometric authentication or security key via WebAuthn protocol.

2

AI Risk Analysis

Real-time risk assessment analyzes device, location, behavior, and contextual factors.

3

Adaptive MFA

High-risk scenarios trigger additional verification steps while low-risk logins proceed seamlessly.
