Passwordless vs. Less Passwords: What Does Your Workforce Need?

Many authentication solutions remove password entry for users but still store or rely on passwords behind the scenes. A real passwordless solution eliminates passwords from both the user experience and backend systems. Instead of passwords, it uses FIDO-based passkeys—secure, phishing-resistant cryptographic credentials. Industries with frontline workers, high turnover, or strict security policies—such as retail, manufacturing, healthcare, and public safety—benefit greatly from true passwordless authentication. These environments demand fast, secure, and seamless logins without the complexity of managing passwords in any form.

But there are also passwordless solutions like IDmelon which removed even the need for a user ID or name. Let’s describe both types of solutions to see which one is a better fit for today’s needs.
