Taking a Large Organization Passwordless

Presented by

Joe Kaplan, Architecture and Strategy Lead, Accenture

About this talk

By now we've all heard about the security and usability benefits of the passwordless authentication future. We've heard about technologies that support passwordless authentication such as Windows Hello for Business, FIDO2, and device sign-in for the Microsoft Authenticator App. How would you go about actually taking your organization passwordless? In this session, we will go on a journey to discover how one large (.5M users) hybrid organization is doing just that. We will cover the technologies at a high level but focus more on the overall approach and the change management journey as we seek to fundamentally change how all of our users access their technology. We also will discuss the challenges around having passwords side-by-side with passwordless options and how we actually plan to eventually take passwords away completely once we really no longer need them. Joe Kaplan is the Architecture and Strategy lead for Accenture's Identity and Access Management organization within internal IT. He focuses on solving real-world identity problems for a large, complex business. Joe is the co-author of the "".NET Developer’s Guide to Directory Services Programming"" and is a former Microsoft MVP in Enterprise Mobility + Security.
