Passwordless banking: How Yubico and HYPR are securing the future of financial access

Passwords are no longer just inconvenient—they’re insecure, unscalable, and costly. Most users reuse them across sites, creating risk when even a minor breach exposes credentials. They frustrate users, lead to abandonment, and overwhelm support teams.

But the threat isn’t just about passwords anymore.

We’ve traditionally believed that passwords and static MFA were the weakest links. Today’s threat landscape—driven by deepfakes, deepseek technology, AI bots, and even quantum computing—challenges even the strongest passwordless solutions. Enterprises must rethink authentication not just as a login tool, but as a frontline security and experience layer.

Watch the on-demand webinar to learn:
- How to evaluate passwordless options for security, ease of use and adoption, and cost
- Strategies for integrating cloud-native and legacy systems
- Real-world examples using biometrics, hardware security keys, and orchestration

Beyond passwords:  How Okta secured their global workforce with Yubico

As your organization navigates Microsoft’s MFA mandate and other recent MFA mandates to improve your organization's security posture, you'll assess the landscape of available authenticators. Many users already have an authenticator app on their mobile devices—but is leveraging these devices the best long-term strategy?
 
This webinar explores the hidden costs and pitfalls of using mobile devices as authenticators, even when they offer phishing resistance. We’ll dive into critical factors such as the user lifecycle, security, phishing resistance, user experience, management, and total cost of ownership.

By the end of this webinar you'll rethink a "good enough" strategy and understand how YubiKeys can improve the experience for your users, improve security posture, and deliver the most value to your organization.

Think "good enough" is enough? Think again about mobile devices as authenticators

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is no longer just a best practice—it’s quickly becoming a requirement. But with mandates coming from different organizations, such as Microsoft and Google, as well as different industries, governments and regulatory bodies, keeping up can feel overwhelming. What’s driving these mandates? Which ones apply to you? And what does this mean for your business’s security strategy?

In this educational webinar, we’ll break down several MFA mandates in simple terms—no jargon, no confusion. Whether you’re hearing about these requirements for the first time or just trying to make sense of them, we’ll help you understand:

- Why MFA mandates are increasing and the key drivers behind them
- Which regulations you should be aware of based on your industry
- What your options are for implementing MFA without disrupting your business
- How to stay ahead of future changes and ensure compliance

Join us as we demystify MFA mandates and give you the tools to confidently navigate this evolving landscape. Whether you’re an IT professional, business owner or just someone responsible for security decisions, this session will provide practical insights to help you stay informed and prepared.

Lions, Tigers, Bears…and MFA Mandates? Oh my!

Cyber attacks such as ransomware, AI-driven phishing, MiTM attacks, and SIM swapping happen every 39 seconds. Over 80% of these cyber attacks are a result of stolen login credentials. Additionally, recent data from Microsoft Entra reveals a staggering increase in attempted attacks, with password attacks targeting Microsoft cloud identities occurring at a rate of 4,000 per second. 

These attacks not only expose sensitive data and disrupt critical services but also allow malicious actors to spy on network transmissions, damaging brand reputation and customer loyalty. Yubico and Microsoft are committed to making organizations cyber resilient by delivering phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) and moving them towards a passwordless future. 

Join us to learn what Chad Thunberg, Yubico CISO, and Derek Hanson, Yubico VP of Alliances, have to say about cyber resiliency.

Doable and durable cyber defenses for manufacturers

2024 has seen a whirlwind of change ranging from political shakeups and the global uncertainty they bring to a growth in data breaches and cyberattacks targeting industries and impacting critical infrastructure. We’ve seen a dramatic increase in phishing attacks that lure individuals into providing their credentials to bad actors who then use these credentials to infiltrate corporate networks guised as a legitimate user, all while circumventing certain forms of multi-factor authentication (MFA). 

With 2024 soon to be in the rear view mirror, prepare for a safe 2025 by attending this webinar to learn what organizations and individuals should be prioritizing to become phishing-resistant users and become cyber resilient against an ever evolving cyber threat landscape.

2024 State of Global Authentication: Tackling Cyberthreats at Work & Home

Cyber resilience is in the news again in the wake of the Crowdstrike outage, when organizations of all sizes were unable to access their systems for hours. High availability and disaster recovery, while often designed and planned from top to bottom in the application stack, are often overlooked in the authentication space. Organizations often cede control to a vendor's Identity Provider and simply rely on their SLA. An outage in the authentication space can be just as big as the Crowdstrike outage. When working with Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) solutions, the resilience of the service is usually outside the control of the organization, but organizations have some control with their authentication approach.

User authentication methods are a critical part of your cyber resilience posture. Join us as we investigate lessons learned from incidents such as Crowdstrike and MGM Grand, and examine different passkey solutions and how they fit into building a resilient, phishing-resistant organization.

Attend this webinar to learn about:
- Passkey implementations including synced passkeys and device-bound passkeys
- Characteristics of resilient authenticators and authentication methods with Entra ID
- Considerations when designing account onboarding, authentication and account recovery flows
- How to begin your journey towards a resilient phishing-resistant organization
    - How you can leverage the new Entra ID FIDO2 registration API
    - Preparing for the Azure MFA Mandate

Build cyber resilience with Yubico and Microsoft to accelerate to passwordless

Modern cyber attacks such as those seen in the 2020 Twitter and the Solarwinds attacks, the 2021 Colonial Pipeline attack, are the reason why President Biden’s Executive Order 14028 on Protecting the Nation’s Cybersecurity, and White House Office of Management and Budget’s Zero Trust Strategy – M-22-09 – call for phishing-resistant MFA for use across the federal government, which also has implications for the wider industry – especially those organizations in critical infrastructure sectors such as healthcare, transportation, energy and natural gas, manufacturing and others. 

With the push to phishing-resistant MFA many providers in the market are claiming to fit the bill, while in reality they do not. Join us for our first webinar of our two part series on modern phishing-resistant MFA to understand the different types of MFA in the market and whether they are truly phishing-resistant or not.
