ToothPic Named a Representative Vendor in the 2024 Gartner Market Guide for User Authentication
We are excited to announce that ToothPic has been recognized as a Representative Vendor in the 2024 Gartner Market Guide for User Authentication. We think this recognition highlights our critical role in the growing user authentication market, as enterprises look for secure solutions to protect digital identities and enhance authentication processes.
ToothPic: A Representative Vendor in User Authentication
According to Gartner, “User authentication is a cornerstone of digital identity and identity-first security. Identity and access management leaders should seek toolsets that minimize account takeover risks and optimize user experience as part of a cohesive cybersecurity strategy that reflects human-centric design.” In this scenario, ToothPic is recognized for its Passkey Provider solution, which offers passwordless authentication using smartphone cameras as a security measure. Our patented technology, protected by four international patents, leverages the unique features of smartphone camera sensors to create secure, unclonable digital identities. This approach mitigates the risk of account takeover and cloning attacks, positioning ToothPic as a unique solution in the market compared to traditional passkey solutions.
Our solution enhances security without compromising user convenience, providing a seamless login experience. Available as an app for Android 14+ devices, ToothPic Passkey Provider offers secure access to users’ favorite websites—completely passwordless.
For larger enterprises, ToothPic has developed the ToothPic Protection SDK, a scalable solution that uses the same advanced smartphone camera sensor technology to create unclonable digital identities and boost authentication security. This SDK is easy to integrate with third-party systems, making it ideal for enterprise environments. It is particularly well-suited for high-security industries like banking, finance, and healthcare, where safeguarding digital identities is a priority.
