Aerospace & Defense
When stakes are highest, identity must be certain.
Aerospace & Defense Biometric Authentication That Stops Phishing and Ransomware
Protect classified systems, defense networks, aerospace operations, and mission-critical infrastructure. TokenCore™ verifies the person, not the credential. The difference is where every breach begins.
Fingerprint-bound. Cryptographically proven. No signal to intercept. No fallback. No exception.

The Problem
Attackers don't break in. They log in.
Why Aerospace & Defense Organizations Need Stronger Authentication Security
The way in is the credential. Phishable codes and shared passwords hand an adversary a working identity, and the exposure repeats at every base, facility, and contractor.
Prime Cyberattack Targets
Classified programs, weapons systems, and intellectual property draw nation-state actors with patience and resources. The objective is access, and access starts with identity.
Shared Credentials and Weak Passwords
Shared logins and phishable codes hand an adversary a working identity. One stolen credential is one foothold inside a system that was never meant to be reached.
Distributed Bases, Facilities, and Contractors
Bases, engineering sites, and remote operations each carry their own access points and contractor population. Every one is a door. TokenCore™ closes all of them.
The Definition
Identity, proven at the source.
What Is Aerospace Biometric Authentication?
Aerospace biometric authentication ties every login to the individual, not a password. A live fingerprint, matched on the device, replaces the code an adversary could steal.
Biometric Authentication, Defined
A live fingerprint matched on a hardware device verifies the person before access is granted. The credential is bound to the individual and verified in real time.
Stronger Workforce Security
Personnel, engineers, and cleared contractors are proven across classified systems, OT environments, and shared terminals. No borrowed badge. No reused password.
Why Aerospace Is Going Passwordless
The password is the vulnerability. Remove it and the most common attack path goes with it. Nothing to phish, nothing to reset, nothing to steal.
The Threats
Same attacks. One answer.
Common Aerospace & Defense Security Threats TokenCore™ Stops
Phishing Attacks
Fake login pages and targeted lures harvest personnel credentials every day. TokenCore™ has nothing to type and nothing to send. There is no code for an attacker to capture.
Credential Theft
Stolen and reused passwords let an adversary log in as cleared staff. TokenCore™ binds every login to the authorized individual. There is no reusable secret to take.
Nation-State Threats
State-backed actors target defense programs with patience and resources. TokenCore™ removes the credential they rely on. Without a live fingerprint, a stolen identity opens nothing.
Insider Threats
Shared logins and borrowed badges blur who actually accessed a classified system. TokenCore™ ties every access event to a verified person. Present and accountable.
Account Takeover
Once credentials are compromised, an account can be opened by anyone. TokenCore™ binds the account to a live fingerprint. It opens only for the individual it belongs to.
Unauthorized Access
Bases, terminals, and mission systems are only as secure as the identity in front of them. TokenCore™ proves that identity at every access point. Granted or denied. No middle ground.
Supply Chain Security Risks
Contractors and suppliers extend the attack surface beyond your walls. TokenCore™ binds contractor access to a verified individual, so a compromised partner credential cannot become your breach.
The Process
Three steps. Zero doubt.
How Biometric Authentication Works
Step 01
Fingerprint Verification
A live fingerprint match starts every access event. The authorized individual is verified on the device before anything is granted.
Step 02
Device-Bound Credentials
Credentials are generated and stored in a tamper-proof secure element. They never leave the hardware and never exist as a reusable secret.
Step 03
Secure Local Matching
Biometric matching happens locally, on the device. The fingerprint never moves, so it can't be intercepted, leaked, or replayed.
Benefits
Mission-ready. Zero compromise.

Digital Transformation
Innovation moves on proven identity.
Securing Aerospace Innovation & Digital Transformation
Connected aerospace operations expand what's reachable. Every connected system, engineering workstation, and remote interface is a new point of access, and a new path for an adversary. TokenCore™ secures that surface at the identity layer, where the actual risk lives.
Digital engineering only moves as fast as it can be trusted. TokenCore™ makes every action traceable to a verified individual, so design, simulation, and data exchange proceed on proven identity, not assumed access.
This is identity-first security: not another perimeter, but a trust layer across the systems you're already connecting. The person is verified first. Everything else follows.
Zero Trust
Verify everyone. Assume nothing.
Zero Trust for Aerospace & Defense
Verify Every User, Device, and Request
Trust is never assumed. Every user, device, and access request is proven against a live fingerprint before anything is granted.
Protect Mission-Critical Systems and Networks
TokenCore™ puts verified identity in front of the systems and networks an adversary most wants to reach. Access is proven before control is granted.
Enforce Least-Privilege Access
Access is bound to the individual, not a shared login. Every person reaches only what they're cleared for. Proven each time.
Secure Supply Chains and Contractor Access
Contractor and supplier logins inherit the same standard. A compromised partner credential cannot open your systems.
Reduce Phishing, Credential Theft, and Account Takeover
No reusable secret means no code to phish, steal, or replay. The most common attack paths close at the identity layer.
Standards
Open standards. Bound to the individual.
Compliance and Aerospace Security Requirements
TokenCore™ is built on FIDO2 and WebAuthn — the open, phishing-resistant standards enterprises already trust. Where a passkey proves possession of a credential, TokenCore™ proves the human holding it. Because TokenCore™ speaks the standards your stack already speaks, it interoperates across IAM, SSO, and PAM with no proprietary lock-in.
FIDO2 Certified
Built on FIDO2 and WebAuthn, the open, phishing-resistant standards enterprises already trust. No shared secret, no code to phish, no relay to exploit.
Supports Security Audit & Control Requirements
Every access event ties to a verified individual, giving auditors a clear, defensible record of who reached which system, and when.
Improving Authentication Governance
Provision, monitor, and retire devices from a single console. Assurance policy updates through signed firmware, so your posture stays current across every site.
Defense Contractor Security Requirements
Phishing-resistant, FIDO2-certified access maps to the access-control and authentication controls defense supply-chain frameworks require, documented and audit-ready.
Department of Defense Authentication Readiness
Strong, hardware-bound identity assurance built for the standards defense programs are held to. Phishing-resistant by architecture, not by policy.
