Introducing The World’s First ever Passwordless Day
· Half of all help desk calls are to deal with password resets, according to research by OKTA
· More than a third of online transactions are abandoned because users forget their passwords, announced Mastercard recently
· Account takeovers cost businesses a combined $25 billion in 2020, says Juniper Research
· So, to encourage a future without passwords, MIRACL launches the world’s first ever Passwordless Day
MIRACL is calling out to the verification industry and all those championing a passwordless future to join together today, the 23rd June 2021, to highlight the ineffectiveness of the traditional ‘password’ and collectively ensure they are condemned to history.
Working in collaboration with MIRACL, businesses are asked to share their thoughts about passwords to collectively create effective online noise – on a day that has been labelled the first ever Passwordless Day in response to Password Day that was celebrated earlier in May.
Rob Griffin, CEO at MIRACL, comments, “Eight years ago, Intel launched ‘World Password Day’ to encourage people to use stronger, more unique passwords. Fast forward to 2021, technological advances means we no longer need to be using passwords at all – there are safe, secure and effective alternatives that minimise risk and make users even safer online. So today we are celebrating Passwordless Day – to highlight the vulnerability of passwords and encourage a world where they no longer exist.”
“In essence, the password is to user security what the cassette player is to music: outdated, inefficient, and prone to failing at the worst possible moment. It’s time we embrace the future. It’s time we go passwordless‘
23rd June was selected as a date to commemorate Alan Turing’s birthday – the ultimate pioneer in cryptography.
Supporters are asked to share on social media all the reasons they believe they should all be passwordless and can access social media templates and a toolkit provided by MIRACL for inspiration:

The # to share is #PasswordlessDay #Passwordless
Companies can save money, improve security, and make life easier for their users by embracing solutions built on basic cryptographic principles – without the need for a password.
MIRACL already supplies the world’s only 100% software, multi-factor authentication (MFA) PIN based solution to customers such as banking giant Crédit Agricole and consumer credit leader, Experian. No data is stored and no password is needed to use the verification.

In the webinars titled ‘Behind The Bet’, experts from across Altenar’s departments will present their thoughts on a range of topics aimed at educating the audience and helping them optimise their sportsbook offering.
As a leading sportsbook provider in regulated markets around the world, Altenar’s products are tailored to the demands of various regions and are developed based on the localised expertise of the team.

The webinars will be held in English, Spanish and Portuguese to cater to the needs of a global audience, with the presentations followed by a question-and-answer session.
The first edition of Behind The Bet will focus on one of the hottest topics in the iGaming industry as Altenar’s Head of Licensing and Regulatory Compliance Magno Neiva and Sales Manager Frederico Caputi discuss the legal landscape in Brazil.
Charlie Williams, Commercial Director at Altenar, said: “The newly regulated market has opened up exciting opportunities for iGaming companies, but there are also many regulatory challenges to overcome in order to maximize market potential. Altenar’s success in highly regulated markets across the globe, and in South America, positions us to deliver a flexible range of products and services to help our clients grow in Brazil.”
Magno Neiva, Head of Licensing and Regulatory Compliance, said: “The Brazilian iGaming market is evolving rapidly, presenting exciting opportunities for operators and providers alike. As one of the most dynamic and promising regions in the industry, Brazil is at the centre of innovation and the new regulatory advancements are shaping the future of online betting and gaming in South America.
“Altenar is proud to be part of this journey, bringing its expertise and cutting-edge solutions to a market that is poised for significant growth.”
This webinar, the first in a series, could not have chosen a more relevant market to explore. Through this discussion, Altenar aims to showcase how its advanced sportsbook and gaming solutions can help businesses thrive in this fast-moving environment.

Part of the implementations include an intricate system with multi-factor authentication and a modern KYC provider, meeting all requirements of the market.
Just days ago, Delasport announced its first Brazilian deal with Latam-based B2B platform provider Vibra Solutions. This is all part of the company’s global expansion strategy where Brazil and LatAm in general is a key region to get established in.
