Identité Announces PasswordFree™ MFA WordPress Plugin

A simple and secure solution that defends against impersonation and phishing attacks

CLEARWATER, FL, UNITED STATES, September 19, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Identité®, a company that is committed to eliminating passwords, credential phishing and account takeover, have released a WordPress Plugin that allows web designers and developers to add phishing resistant PasswordFree™ multi-factor authentication to their website using the WordPress Console. The PasswordFree Plugin enables a web portal to register and authenticate users without using passwords or SMS one-time passcodes (OTP).

Beginning today, WordPress developers can get the PasswordFree™ MFA WordPress plugin on Identité’s website at @identite.us/wordpress.

The plugin utilizes innovative, award-winning, and patented Full Duplex Authentication®. This is a key defense against stolen credentials and account take-over. It neutralizes attacks such as phishing, website impersonation, man-in-middle, browser-in-browser, and rogue proxies. Approximately 80% of all known data breaches are the result of stolen credentials. Passwords are also business inhibitors. A recent survey found that 58% of consumers said they abandoned their shopping carts due to log-in frustrations. PasswordFree™ MFA allows an online user to employ their favorite device and biometric as a personal and secure authenticator.

The key benefits of using the PasswordFree™ MFA WordPress Plugin are:
• No code or programming skills needed – one click install
• Online users of the website have no passwords to create, remember, or recover
• Phishing-resistant protection for your website visitors
• Registration in under 5 seconds with a QR Code scan
• Frictionless PasswordFree™ execution using multiple factors of authentication, including a biometric, in less than a second
• Online users make use of their favorite trusted device turning it into a secure HW token

“With the WordPress plugin, we created a simple and fast way for developers to offer a PasswordFree™ MFA experience in their web portal,” says John Hertrich, CEO at Identité. “With a simple look, click or a tap, online users can register and authenticate to a PasswordFree™ MFA enabled website.”

“Phishing erodes brand confidence but most won’t risk the additional friction that comes with traditional MFA,” says Joe Skocich, EVP of Strategy, Global Sales and Marketing. “The PasswordFree™ MFA WordPress plugin protects users against phishing while allowing users to quickly register and return with less friction than creating or remembering a password.”
