If you’ve seen Okta’s Best Of 2015 report we published in late December, you know that all signs point to 2016 being a banner year for all forms of strong authentication. As our data so clearly shows, the classic security question is on its way out and providers of new authentication methods (including our very own Okta Verify with Push) are making moves within organisations looking to better protect access to user accounts. The hard token category in particular is one where we’re seeing rapid innovation and a growing array of use cases. And while all vendors may not be on the same path, a number are turning heads with their cost-effective, user-friendly options. That innovation is a big reason why we’re forming partnerships with leaders in this area to develop a simple, easy-to-deploy, hard token-based authentication method within Okta Adaptive Multi-factor Authentication (MFA), helping companies boost.
