Introducing Photolok by Netlok – Passwordless SSO/MFA

Photolok is a unique, passwordless Identity Authentication (IAM) solution. As a password alternative, Photolok consists of an Identity Provider (encrypted photos) and Authentication Server (OAuth 2.0) that sends an OAuth token for authentication. Netlok’s team uses Photolok as an identity provider Single Sign On (SSO) with its Okta Workforce account to access its apps and API’s without entering any passwords. By integrating Open ID Connect to Photolok, it makes easier for organizations to adopt Photolok as a SSO or MFA alternative.

Photolok Simplifies the Login Journey for Employees, Consumers, and Taxpayers

Photos are easy to remember, select, and replace. Photolok reduces friction by eliminating password rules and password resetting, which also makes Photolok cost effective and more convenient for all users.

Using photos simplifies employee, consumer, and taxpayer adoption by eliminating language and literacy barriers, which is huge issue for government communication. Users of all ages will enjoy personally choosing their account photos from Photolok’s photo library. Each user’s photos are private, and Photolok provides advanced security protection not offered by password-based and biometric solutions.
