Description

Passwords Suck. I think everyone can get around that statement. This talk is all about the history of passwords and how we can go beyond using them to confirm our identity to sites using more practical means. We will look at ways we can use a push notification application on your phone to fulfill your authentication request to your sites. Watch while we transform a normal password login flow, to a flow that you only have to enter in your username/email and have an application that allows for push notifications on your phone to log in.
