Passwords Are the Weakest Link: Going Passwordless

Flat White Fix episode 12: Go passwordless, close the door

Passwords remain one of the most common entry points for cyber incidents, reused, guessed, phished, or written on sticky notes.

This not only improves security but removes friction for users who are tired of remembering complex credentials. For modern businesses, passwordless is a simple, practical step toward Zero Trust, reducing risk without slowing people down.

Curious whether passwordless would suit your environment?
