Solving the Weakest Link: Password Security



Date Published:
28 FEB 2005
About the White Paper:
The weakest link in many organizations's network's security system is passwords. After spending countless hours and dollars ensuring their network is secured, one user can in one minute undermine all of their efforts simply by writing down a password on a post it note and attaching it to their monitor allowing others to see.

This paper proposes improving security and authentication by eliminating the use of passwords among end-users. This new approach also solves the password management and rest costs which Gartner estimates to be $200 - $300 annually per a user.
