ALARMED: Life Beyond Passwords (CSO)

"Passwords just don't cut it anymore."

"The security community has been saying this for years, yet single-factor authentication - user name and password - is still the Internet's calling card.

The proliferation of phishing has made that much clear."

Sarah Scalet takes a look at where user authentication is today, and is headed tomorrow. An interesting look at both why passwords just don't cut it in many situations and what other factors may come into play to authenticating users in the online world. See the full article here.
