HYPR, an Identity Assurance Company, has released the fifth edition of its ‘State of Passwordless Identity Assurance Report.’

The report reveals an increasing misalignment between real-world security risks and outdated authentication methods.

It also highlights the growing risks associated with outdated authentication methods and the rise of new generative AI-related attacks.

The company states that this is a first in the report’s five-year history.
