Passwordless Authentication

Passwordless authentication enables customers to sign in to OPERA Cloud applications without entering their username and password for every session. Non-federated customer administrators can configure this self-service feature within OCI IAM Identity Domain, allowing their users to access OPERA Cloud applications without the need to enter their username and password for every session.

After the Passwordless Authentication is configured, when signing in for the first time, users enter their username and password on the sign-in page to log in to the application. On future occasions signing in, the login screen prompts users to provide only their username, and then users are prompted to choose the appropriate authentication factors (such as Email, FIDO keys, Mobile App notification, or Mobile App passcode) to sign-in and access the application.

See Passwordless Authentication Guide.

OPERATIONAL BENEFITS

This feature streamlines the user sign-in process, making access to OPERA Cloud applications more convenient by removing the need to repeatedly enter passwords. It also enhances security by moving away from traditional passwords, thereby lowering the risk of password-related attacks.
