Currently available on the WordPress Plugin Directory, the passwordless plugin is the company’s latest product that provides WordPress-created websites the ability to add passwordless, biometric sign on and registration. 

The company revealed the new capability will eradicate the risks of account takeovers, phishing, SIM swaps and man-in-the-middle attacks.

Speaking on the new plugin, Simon Law, CEO of LoginID explained that unlike other popular single-sign on solutions, user information cannot be used for tracking purposes, ensuring a private experience on websites that integrate the LoginID WordPress Plugin.

“The plugin can be easily installed by any WordPress developer in minutes, making it the fastest way to add FIDO-certified strong authentication into websites,” he added.

The plugin allows websites to integrate FIDO-certified strong authentication in five clicks, and enables WordPress end users to register and authenticate through secure public key cryptography.

It also eliminates the need for customers to enter a password when they log in to a WordPress website and reduces customer abandonment rates through seamless transactions, according to LoginID, which is the creator of the FIDO-powered passwordless authentication solution.

The San Mateo/Toronto based company focused on bridging the gap between authenticating users and securing their information, through its FIDO2 and UAF certified customer authentication, privacy and tokenization platform.
