In 2024, companies will see more adoption of passkeys and other MFA methods to access business assets. Passkey adoption, along with biometrics, hardware tokens, and public-key cryptography, will replace the use of passwords.

One way to reduce risk and boost security patches is the usage of proximity badges, physical tokens, or USB devices (FIDO2-compliant keys).
