But the likes of George Waller, co-founder of StrikeForce Technologies, a US startup with a number of patented cybersecurity inventions under its belt, argues the problem isn’t with passwords per se. Although he points out that most online businesses typically want to offer consumers the path of least resistance to gain access to their sites. The problem is with passwords’ delivery to servers down the line.
“Ultimately, it’s not really a matter of , or whether or not you enforce stricter policies on their use. It doesn’t matter so much what you type in because there typically isn’t encryption at the key-stroke level and data is in transit [and so vulnerable] from the time you start typing your password,” he says. “We’re going to use passwords for quite some time because, from a security point of view, the whole system out there is just so complex.”
