NokNok Labs Collaborates with Persistent to Transform Password Security Features

NokNokLabsTM a founding member of the FIDO Alliance, is teaming with Persistent Systems to transform password security features and reduce friction around signing in for app services consumers. The collaboration with NokNok Labs is the latest example of Persistent growing its digital transformation partner ecosystem with start-ups and technology innovators. 

Last month Persistent Systems announced an agreement with USAA for development rights to a number of patented innovations currently in use by USAA related to security in financial services. 

Persistent Systems and NokNok Labs are helping software-driven businesses simplify and strengthen their digital security experience. In the digital world, users expect access to large amounts of data – much of it sensitive – across multiple devices and in an easy-to-use interface. In today’s world, however, users are frequently dealing with multiple passwords for different applications, increasingly complex passwords and security steps, compromised passwords or just the demand to change passwords as frequently as every six weeks. The result; bad customer experiences. For app services providers, it can also mean the difference between whether a user stays with a service or leaves in frustration. 

NokNok Labs provides an intuitive, easy-to-use and secure authentication infrastructure for mobile and web applications, using standards-based solutions that include support for the FIDO Protocols. The Unified Authentication Infrastructure is aimed at disrupting the underlying framework on which current authentication solutions depend, specifically designed for modern computing requirements and the Internet of Things. The adoption of cloud computing and the mobile device ecosystem requires the ability to move beyond the username-and-password paradigm of the past. 

Ramesh Kesanupalli, founder of NokNok Labs and FIDO visionary said, “In our view, a user authenticates to a device, and a device authenticates into a network – security is that simple. These two layers of abstraction allow you to attach biometrics –  a blink into a camera, touch on a fingerprint sensor, or spoken phrase into the microphone – which are, absolutely, unique to the user and offer a wonderful level of privacy. It’s also a much more elegant and easy user experience. Working with Persistent, we’re helping enterprises securely scale their apps and digital experiences.”  

Munjay Singh, President, Services at Persistent Systems said, "Collaborating with innovators like NokNok Labs enables us to extend compelling and cutting edge products and solutions to our enterprise customers, strengthening our technology and partner ecosystem for digital transformation. As a preferred partner for FIDO integration Nok Nok Labs strongly complements other recent agreements Persistent has entered into with industry leaders to develop authentication and security solutions."
