Going Passwordless with YubiKeys: A Playbook for Deploying Passkeys at Scale
Webinar Description
Moving to passwordless authentication can strengthen security, but a successful rollout requires careful planning across technology, policies, logistics and user experience.
Join CDW Canada and Yubico during Cybersecurity Awareness Month for a practical discussion on deploying passkeys at scale. You’ll learn how to approach the challenges of moving away from legacy MFA methods such as SMS and OTP while supporting a smooth rollout for your organization.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss:
- Migration strategy: Explore how to transition from legacy MFA methods such as SMS and OTP to hardware-backed passkeys without disrupting productivity.
- Policy controls: Understand the considerations around syncable and hardware-bound passkeys and how to establish policies for high-assurance authentication.
- Inventory management and logistics: Learn how to establish an efficient distribution process for hardware-based keys.
- Account lifecycle operations: Explore best practices for remote onboarding, securely enrolling keys and handling account recovery when a physical key is lost.
- User experience: Learn how intuitive enrollment workflows and clear communication can help address security fatigue.
Why attend?
A passwordless rollout involves more than selecting an authentication method. This session will provide a modular framework for planning deployment at scale, with practical considerations for migration, policy, logistics, account management and user experience.
