Strong Authentication: Your First Line of Defense Against Digital Fraud

Strong Authentication: Your First Line of Defense Against Digital Fraud

June 2025  —  Titan Technologies Security Research

Fraudsters are increasingly targeting online platforms with phishing, credential stuffing, and man-in-the-middle attacks.

Strong authentication eliminates these attack vectors by requiring cryptographic proof — not just knowledge (like a password).

Titan Technologies utilizes PKI-based authentication, where users must prove possession of a private key, stored securely on a smartcard or mobile device protected by biometric verification.

This approach is resistant to phishing, replay attacks, and credential leaks.

It also supports FIDO2/WebAuthn, making passwordless authentication a reality across browsers and platforms.


Key Capabilities:

  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) using biometric, PIN, and digital certificate
  • Smartcard and mobile PKI authentication
  • Mutual TLS between client and server for secure channel establishment
  • Compatibility with national identity platforms and IAM solutions
