WSO2 adaptive authentication powered by TypingDNA typing biometrics enables companies to validate the identities of their workforce and customers without the need to whip out their phones for every login.
Typing biometrics looks at a user’s behavior when they type on their keyboards and analyzes patterns in their behavior. After a user's typing pattern is enrolled, the technology can passively authenticate their identity to ensure that only authorized users have access to corporate data.

But authenticating employees or customers by sending OTP codes to their mobile phones adds friction to the identity verification process. With typing biometrics, employees and customers alike are seamlessly authenticated by the way they type without having to use their mobile phones.
STEP 1
The employee types their username and password and is directly securely authenticated to log into the company apps through the WSO2 identity platform. In this case, because typing biometrics authentication worked in the background and recognized the user as being who they claimed to be, there is no need for additional authentication.
STEP 2
The second factor of authentication, such as SMS OTP, would only be needed if the employee's typing biometrics authentication failed during login.
WSO2 clients can also deploy adaptive authentication with typing biometrics for their customer authentication scenarios, such as logging in to their bank accounts, social media, or other apps.
