Passkey Authentication for IBM Employees
summary
IBM deploys passkeys for employees by moving apps onto IBM Security Verify SaaS and adding a self‑service onboarding portal that shrinks app onboarding from six months and $20,000 to minutes; a live demo shows Box login with an unattested passkey and conditional MFA driven by a risk engine. Early rollout yields 60,000 registrations with 85% platform authenticators, still 90% of users on passwords, and plans to phase out SMS OTP and nudge broader passkey adoption.
