In fact, the IT and Password Security Survey Report found that over 10 million username and password attacks occur on a daily basis. So, what exactly is it that makes passwords such a desirable target?
There are plenty of reasons why passwords are so vulnerable. For example, poor password management is one factor, which includes using the same password repeatedly, storing passwords where others can access them, and sharing passwords with friends and coworkers. Password change policies, although utilized with good intentions, contribute to password frustrations, too.
Having to come up with new, sophisticated passwords every few months can be both challenging and time-consuming. Many people simply end up recycling passwords to save time.
PKIs consist of several components that help you create, issue, and manage certificates. Those components include the following:. Building and maintaining your own PKI is labor-intensive, requiring time, money, and a high degree of cybersecurity expertise. When you use our MPKI, you get everything you need to set up certificate-based authentication for your organization.
Plus, SecureW2 has built an amazingly user-friendly GUI that hands you the keys to your PKI kingdom, making it simple for you to manage the whole certificate lifecycle from issuance to revocation. The answer to this issue is certificate revocation. Once a certificate is placed on the CRL, the certificate will be considered invalid for authentication. You can also set certificates to expire automatically at specific intervals or revoke them manually.
Passwords are a significant attack vector in the modern era. Ditching them entirely with certificate-based authentication greatly increases the security of your network. As an extra benefit, users also get to enjoy the convenience of passwordless authentication.
