Rohan Vaidya, Regional Director of Sales - India, CyberArk opines, “2020 will see a new (and unfounded) level of complacency around security driven by passwordless, behavioural and biometric authentication. With passwordless all the rage, organisations continuing to adopt biometric authentication for e.g. banking services and certain companies starting to add behavioral controls to assess whether a user is who they say  they are as well, 2020 will be the time to remind ourselves that the most secure authentication is never the most user-friendly or the most cost-effective. We must see passwordless technology and the like for what it is - a great way of authenticating an individual but not a security panacea that will prevent mass data breaches.”
