Enhanced Login Experience: By combining Hideez with Okta, users can enjoy a rapid and secure login process without the need for passwords, across both web and applications.
Streamlined Employee Authentication: Employees have the convenience of registering their mobile devices once, thereafter accessing web and mobile apps, as well as Windows, MacOS, and VDI workstations, without the hassle of passwords.
Customer Authentication Simplification: Customers using Okta-protected apps can be guided to register their mobile devices within the app, enabling subsequent passwordless authentication for seamless access.

This customization allows for tailored security measures based on individual needs and use cases.
