Keyless Now Available in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace

LONDON, UK — 12  December, 2024 — Keyless, the leader in privacy-preserving biometric authentication, announces the availability of its multi-factor facial biometrics solution on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. This strategic move enables Keyless prospects and customers to benefit from privacy-preserving biometrics that reduce fraud and improve the user experience directly within the Azure cloud platform.

Organizations transacting on the Azure Marketplace can also purchase Keyless to simplify procurement and retire their Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) with ease, by committing 100% of the sale price to reduce their MACC.

Integrating with Microsoft’s ecosystem including Microsoft Azure Active Directory B2C and Microsoft Entra ID, Keyless is powered by advanced passive liveness and authenticates users without ever storing biometric data—neither on a user’s device or the cloud. An industry first, this technology ensures compliance with major data privacy regulations such as the GDPR while delivering the highest levels of security and user experience.

Leveraging privacy-preserving facial biometrics, Keyless ensures only genuine users can authenticate, providing stronger identity assurance than traditional credentials, OTPs, or passkeys. With under-300-millisecond multi-factor authentication across devices and the ability to streamline procurement through Microsoft Azure contracts, organizations can benefit from strong authentication instead.
