iProov, the world’s leading provider of science-based biometric identity verification solutions, launched iProov Workforce MFA. This device-independent, FIDO Alliance-certified, biometric authentication solution helps organizations mitigate the risk of one of workforce security’s most crucial concerns: account takeover.

The solution can be used in conjunction with passkeys, or independently of the device, enabling it to run on users’ personal and shared devices. It also reduces the exposure and costs associated with password resets while offering cross-platform compatibility and a more streamlined user authentication process. iProov Workforce MFA supports the OpenID Connect (OIDC) protocol enabling a no-code integration with major identity providers like Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, OneLogin, Ping Identity, SailPoint, and Saviynt.
