MIRACL’s passwordless Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds to Continent 8’s multi-layered cybersecurity solutions and regulatory compliance suite, allowing secure, frictionless logins from any browser or device.
MIRACL is a multi-factor authentication provider that does not require a password. Today, MIRACL announced a partnership with Continent 8 Technologies. Continent 8 Technologies is a global provider of managed hosting, connectivity and cloud solutions for the iGaming industry.
This collaboration allows Continent 8’s regulated cybersecurity products to be enhanced with MIRACL’s secure, one-step MFA, providing the most efficient and secure authentication experience.
MIRACL’s MFA service streamlines authentication with a personal identification number code (PIN) or device-based fingerprint. It allows players to gain access to an online service in less than two seconds, 20 times faster than the traditional multi-step method of MFA. MIRACL has the highest Login success rate, on average 99.9%, which results in increased traffic, conversions and revenue.
By preventing account takeovers, and minimising the number of account resets that occur, this solution allows gaming operators and providers to reduce IT support and infrastructure costs.
MIRACL MFA delivers bank-grade security via a zero-knowledge architecture, which ensures that no information related to security is stored or shared. The service offers zero vulnerabilities by eliminating the exchange of credentials. This makes it resistant to remote and brute force attacks such as credential stuffing and man-in-the middle. It also eliminates password spraying and phishing. The MFA solution complies to the strictest security and privacy regulations including MFA legislation for the regulated iGaming industry and online sports betting.
Rob Griffin, CEO of MIRACL stated “The move to mandatory MFA mandated by regulators will be a major change in the industry as requirements are changing rapidly across the globe. MIRACL is able to meet 100% of these requirements while simultaneously improving the user experience.
Continent 8 is a leader in iGaming, specializing in cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and providing gaming services to delight customers. MIRACL’s innovative products exceed customer expectations in these three areas, so Continent 8 makes the perfect partner. We are excited to bring our single-step, passwordless MFA to Continent 8’s global clientele.
Operators can conceptually understand the potential of passwordless authentication for increasing revenues and saving costs. However, they require a trusted partner who is an expert in the field to guide them through the process. MIRACL and Continent 8 are able to meet this large customer need by working closely together. This will ensure that customers get the massive ROI MIRACL’s passwordless MFA enables.
MIRACL’s passwordless MFA will be part of Continent 8’s and C8 Secure’s comprehensive suite of multilayered cybersecurity solutions. VAPT, Compliance Audit and DDoS are among the services offered by the current portfolio.
David Brace is Principal, Innovation & Technology, at Continent 8. He said: “Speed and uptime are the pillars that support our business. This includes infrastructure, connectivity, or protecting digital assets. We add a MFA service to our portfolio by partnering with MIRACL. This protects players against fraud and cyber-attacks, meets regulatory requirements, and provides operators a quick, passwordless MFA experience.
This strategic alliance represents a major step in our mission to become the trusted cybersecurity partner and infrastructure provider for the regulated iGaming industry and online sports betting.
