1Password💡 Why It Matters
Passwords cost money and cause breaches: average password reset costs $70 in help desk time, typical enterprises handle 30% of tickets for password issues, and 81% of breaches involve credentials (Verizon DBIR). Executive Order 14028 and CISA now require phishing-resistant MFA for federal systems. Organizations completing passwordless transformation report 92% reduction in help desk tickets, 99.9% reduction in credential-based attacks, and 15-25 point improvement in user satisfaction (NPS).
