It recommends a gradual approach, starting with methods like biometrics, FIDO, and OTP alongside passwords to ease user transition. Risk intelligence should be applied to balance security and convenience, using dynamic step-up authentication. Strong authentication must secure weak points such as enrollment, resets, and emergency access. RSA enables this shift with broad authenticator options, AI-driven risk scoring, self-service credential recovery, FIDO partnerships, and always-on availability with offline access support.
