Overview

HYPR was established in 2014 as a pioneer in the passwordless authentication market and is now recognized as the gold-standard for phishing-resistant passwordless MFA using FIDO-standards and leading the way with passkeys adoption.

HYPR continues to deliver market-leading innovation being the first provider in the industry to deliver Enterprise Passkeys which combine a frictionless experience combined with rigorous enterprise authentication security. This new technology turns any smartphone into a FIDO2 virtual security key, providing phishing-resistant authentication flexibility, user convenience, and security while eliminating the complexity and cost of a hardware security key. The solution is FIDO-Certified and proven to work alongside existing technology such as SSOs, VPN, VDI, and suites.

The adoption of HYPR’s MFA technology can drastically reduce common issues associated with password-based systems. Businesses have noted a 95% decrease in password reset tickets and a reduction in account lockout incidents, which not only improves operational efficiency but also enhances overall cybersecurity posture. By eliminating passwords, HYPR helps organizations mitigate the risks of phishing attacks and other security threats, leading to a more secure and efficient operational environment. This approach not only protects sensitive data but also offers a streamlined, user-friendly experience that can significantly enhance both employee and customer satisfaction.

How we are different

- True Passwordless MFA: HYPR Authenticate completely eliminates the use of any type of shared secret in the authentication process. Instead, it uses cryptographic certificates with the private key securely stored with the user at all times. Many so-called passwordless providers still rely on password rotation, password replay, one-time passcodes (OTP), time-based OTPs, SMS codes, and other shared secret-based credentials that cannot provide truly passwordless multi-factor authentication.
- Proven Business Impact: HYPR Authenticate has been independently validated to return a 324% ROI, saving customers $8.1M in total benefits through business risk avoidance, reduction in helpdesk costs, and end-user productivity savings experienced in less than 6 months.
- Seamless and Secure User Experience: Our single-gesture passwordless MFA system has been proven to accelerate login times by 30%, simplifying the authentication process while upholding stringent security measures.
