Building modern authentication goesbeyond usernames and passwords andprovides a framework for managing
identity.
Imagine you're a developer and have been tasked with adding
authentication to your app. Easy, right? You add username andpassword auth and ship. When you go to market, yourcustomers make it very clear that's not enough. Your enterpriseclients need single sign on (SSO) for security and so they canretain control of their employees’ access. Users ask for
multifactor authentication to better secure their accounts.
That’s just the start. Instead of reinventing the wheel, learn how
you can get modern authentication faster and from the start.
Enterprises and users alike are demanding greater control,
security, and ease of use. Does your organization have thetools and know-how to keep up?

Modern Authentication Means Choice and Doing More
Typing in a username and password to gain access to a web service may haveworked in the past, but has significant drawbacks today.

Security

AdministrationUser Experience

Users tend to reuse the same
credentials across multiple
logins leaving themsusceptible to hacks outsideof your control.

Managing access to web
based services can be alogistical nightmare forservices that don’t havesingle sign on capability.

User experience: Having to
manually enter another set of
credentials can lead to
disdain and lack of adoption
for the service.

Modern authentication is more than just usernames andpasswords. Enterprise federation and single sign on (SSO) giveenterprises one source of truth for managing user identity.
Enterprise connections such as AD, LDAP, ADFS, Ping, Google
Apps, and more are essential. Social connections allow a user tovalidate their identity through a third party such as LinkedIn,Facebook, Twitter, and so on. Let’s compare legacy to modern
authentication with Auth0:

Beyond the Login Screen
Modern authentication is more than just verifying a set ofcredentials. Security and peace of mind are essential for bothenterprises and users. Multifactor authentication plays anessential part in ensuring that the person attempting to login is
who they say they are but many services are lacking this crucial
feature. If username and password authentication is arequirement for your organization, Auth0 has the tools to makeit secure.
In addition to a best-in-breed multifactor authentication
solution, Auth0 additionally provides anomaly detection as wellas breached password detection available with the flip of aswitch. Anomaly detection prevents malicious attackers fromexecuting brute force attacks and scans for other anomalies
such as location of login. Breached password detection checks
the user's credentials against known leaked credentials andnotifies the user if a match is found.

Do Better with Auth0
Authentication is no longer just about usernames andpasswords, it’s about providing a secure identity for users andthe tools to manage that identity for admins. Auth0 helps you
