Manufacturing

The person is the credential.

Manufacturing Biometric Authentication That Stops Phishing and Ransomware

Legacy MFA verifies a code. TokenCore™ verifies the person. The difference is where every manufacturing 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 Manufacturing Organizations Need Stronger Authentication Security

Manufacturing is now a primary target. Production downtime is expensive, supply chains are exposed, and attackers know it. The pressure to restore operations is exactly what they exploit.

The way in is the credential. Shared logins on the plant floor, weak passwords, and codes that can be phished hand attackers a working identity. One stolen credential is one open door.

That exposure multiplies across the footprint: plants, distribution sites, and remote engineering teams, each with its own access points. TokenCore™ closes every one. Access is bound to a live fingerprint, present and verified, on every site.

The Definition

Identity, proven at the source.

What Is Manufacturing Biometric Authentication?

Manufacturing biometric authentication ties every login to the individual, not a password. A live fingerprint, matched on a hardware device, replaces the code an attacker could steal. The credential is bound to the person carrying it and verified in real time.

This is where workforce security changes. Operators, engineers, and administrators are proven before access is granted across IT systems, OT environments, and shared terminals. No borrowed badge. No reused password. No question of who was there.

Manufacturers are moving to passwordless for one reason: 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.

What Is Manufacturing Biometric Authentication_

Phishing Attacks

Fake login pages and email lures harvest worker credentials every day. TokenCore™ has nothing to type and nothing to send. There is no code for an attacker to capture.

Ransomware Attacks

Ransomware starts with one compromised login and ends with halted production. TokenCore™ removes the entry point. Access requires a live fingerprint, so a stolen credential opens nothing.

Credential Theft

Stolen and reused passwords let an attacker log in as staff. TokenCore™ binds every login to the authorized individual. There is no reusable secret to take.

Insider Threats

Shared logins and borrowed badges blur who actually accessed a 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

Plants, terminals, and OT 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.

Step 01

Fingerprint Verification

A live fingerprint match starts every access event. The authorized worker 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.

Compliance

Compliance, Met

TokenCore™'s FIDO2-certified, phishing-resistant authentication supports NIST, IEC 62443, and critical-infrastructure access requirements. Documented and audit-ready, with no fallback methods.

Asset Protection

Critical Manufacturing Assets, Protected

OT, ICS, and production systems were never built for the open network they now sit on. TokenCore™ adds a verified-identity layer in front of every one. Access proven before control is granted.

Operational Efficiency

No Lost Time on Password Resets

TokenCore™ removes the password, and the reset workflow with it. No locked-out shifts, no help-desk queue, no production time lost to a forgotten credential.

Cyber Insurance

Cyber Insurance, Satisfied

Underwriters recognize phishing-resistant MFA as the identity security benchmark. TokenCore™ meets that standard, reducing premium risk and closing coverage gaps.

Compatible with Leading Authentication Services

Digital Transformation

Connected operations need proven identity.

Industry 4.0 and Secure Digital Transformation

Connected manufacturing expands what's reachable. Every sensor, line, and remote interface is a new point of access, and a new path for an attacker. TokenCore™ secures that surface at the identity layer, where the actual risk lives.

Digital initiatives only move as fast as they can be trusted. TokenCore™ makes every action traceable to a verified individual, so automation, remote operation, 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.

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.

Secure OT and Industrial Control Systems

TokenCore™ puts verified identity in front of OT and ICS, the systems most exposed and least built for modern authentication.

Least-Privilege Access, Enforced

Access is bound to the individual, not a shared login. Every person reaches only what they're authorized to. Proven each time.

Support Industry 4.0 and Connected Manufacturing

Connected lines, sensors, and remote interfaces inherit the same standard. Identity assurance scales with the operation.

Reduce phishing, credential theft, and account cover

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.

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. Your posture stays current across every site.
