The remote work revolution is driving authentication toward a future that’s more efficient, effective and user-friendly. User experience is more important than ever, access security is expanding, and existing security workflows are becoming more streamlined.
In the 2021 Duo Trusted Access Report: The Road to a Passwordless Future, we examine how enterprises are leveraging lower-friction methods like biometrics and Webauthn to move away from passwords while protecting the hybrid workforce.
For this report, our researchers analyzed data from more than 36 million devices, more than 400 thousand unique applications and roughly 800 million monthly authentications from across our customer base, spanning North America, Western Europe and Asia-Pacific.
The data shows that organizations across all industries are increasingly enabling their workforces to work from home now, and potentially for an extended period of time, and they’re implementing the appropriate controls to ensure secure access to applications.
“Trusted access blends the topics of security, compliance and privacy in a way that affects all of us on a daily basis. Evolving this trusted access is a top priority for our digital future.”
—Wendy Nather, Head of Advisory CISOs, Duo
