Passwordless Authentication Feature Request

A Passwordless Authentication Feature Request is no longer a nice-to-have. It's the direct path to removing one of the weakest links in modern applications: stored passwords. Every password database you maintain is a liability. Every reset request wastes developer time. Every breach is a career-ending risk.

Passwordless authentication uses cryptographic keys, magic links, biometrics, or one-time codes sent over secure channels. No passwords means no password leaks. It cuts friction for users and slashes overhead for teams. Engineers push code without worrying about compliance headaches tied to password storage. Managers ship products faster without legal nightmares in the risk register.

When drafting your feature request for passwordless authentication, focus on:

  • Eliminating password storage entirely.
  • Supporting multiple passwordless methods for different user flows.
  • Ensuring strong encryption and secure communication channels.
  • Integrating with existing identity providers without brittle workarounds.
  • Providing clear audit logs and access controls.

Cluster support for passwordless login across platforms, devices, and frameworks. Specify API endpoints and SDK updates in your request. Call out the need for minimal latency on authentication handshakes. Demand a fallback that still avoids passwords, such as hardware tokens or verified device pairing.

A strong passwordless authentication feature aligns with zero trust architecture. It reduces attack surface, accelerates onboarding, and future-proofs the product. Vendors that ignore it will lag behind. Teams that implement it first will lead.

Stop asking for password policy tweaks. Push for passwordless authentication in your next sprint planning or integration roadmap.
