Gridvault enables the rapid adoption of easy to use, highly secure password-less authentication solutions at scale.
Our patented technology platform is built and first products leveraging Gridvault will be coming to market soon.
GOODBYE PASSWORDS
Major software, internet and financial services companies are aggressively pursuing a strategy of introducing "high assurance, strong authentication" digital identity solutions that no longer require users to create cumbersome, complicated and ultimately unsecure passwords. These new password-less solutions are built around three core building blocks.
01 / The Thing You Own
For mass market solutions, this will typically be your Smartphone.
02 / The Thing You Are
This will be a biometric. Typically a digital fingerprint or a face scan such as FaceID.
03 / The Thing You Know
A password, pin, memorable word, secret question or a combination of these. For many years this has been the weakest element in secure authentication.
This password-less revolution is being led by industry alliances such as FIDO2 whose members include Microsoft, Google and MasterCard.
​
In this new world Gridvault technology provides the answer to
The Thing You Know
an easy to use, secure as a biometric secret that only one person knows.
Gridvault is an associate member of the FIDO Alliance
THE THING YOU KNOW
EASY TO USE
-
Gridvault is based on a spatial pattern that is very easy for an individual to create and remember - but very hard for anyone else to guess.
-
Gridvault can unlock a phone or application via voice - whilst remaining totally secure
-
The user interface is not limited to traditional letters, numbers or keyboard special characters
SECURE
-
An individual's personal pattern can be as secure as a biometric with very high entropy
-
It is not possible to obtain a Gridvault personal pattern via key logging, shoulder surfing or jail breaking
-
A one time pad feature means even speaking a login pin out load is totally secure
-
Clever software design means even if your smartphone is infected by malware or stolen it is not possible to find out the unlock code.
UNIVERSAL
-
Gridvault is device independent
-
The Gridvault interface is not limited to traditional Western characters or keyboard inputs
-
Gridvault is fully compatible with the latest authentication standards including FIDO2
-
Gridvault can be used in two factor authentication (2FA) as a complement to or as an equally secure alternative to a biometric
Gridvault has developed and patented a novel, easy to use and highly secure answer to The Thing You Know that can easily integrate with standards based password-less authentication solutions Historically 'the thing you know' has been a password, pin, memorable word or a secret question and more recently in crypto-wallets a cumbersome passphrase. These have all suffered from major security weaknesses and a poor user experience. Gridvault solves this problem,
