To help create a better experience for these users, Alpha Serve has developed WebAuthn add-ons to bring passwordless authentication to various Atlassian products.

WebAuthn is part of the FIDO2 framework - various technologies that permit passwordless authentication among web browsers, servers, and authenticators.

Benefits of Going Passwordless Though passwordless authentication is not entirely new, it's not available by default for Atlassian products, and there was no way to enable it until recently.

With passwordless authentication, cybercriminals face a more significant challenge gaining access to users' authentication.

WebAuthn passwordless authentication is a more dependable solution for safeguarding confidential information.
