At Keytos, our mission has always been to make phishing-resistant authentication easy and accessible. Today, we’re thrilled to announce our integration with Authentrend—a leading innovator in biometric authentication hardware.
This partnership brings together EZCMS, our streamlined passwordless identity lifecycle manager, and Authentrend’s biometric smart card—a powerful form factor that combines FIDO2 authentication and smartcard PKI capabilities into a single biometric-protected card.
With this dual-mode card, organizations can now:
🔹 Onboard to Entra ID (Azure AD) with either FIDO2 or Smartcard authentication, using our automated onboarding tools.
🔹 Secure user access with fingerprint-based biometric verification, ensuring the credential stays with the user and can’t be phished.
🔹 Simplify deployment of unphishable credentials with the EZCMS platform, eliminating the need for complex, manual certificate enrollment workflows.
While FIDO2 keys and hardware tokens are growing in popularity, many organizations—especially in government, healthcare, and regulated industries—still rely heavily on smartcard form factors. With the Authentrend biometric card, these organizations get the best of both worlds:
🔹 A smartcard that meets compliance and ecosystem requirements
🔹 A FIDO2 authenticator for modern, passwordless web authentication
🔹 All secured with biometric protection at the hardware level
“Adding a biometric smartcard form factor to our ecosystem has been one of the most requested features by our enterprise customers,” said Igal Flegmann, Co-Founder & CEO of Keytos. “We are excited to work with Authentrend to deliver a device that brings together the strengths of traditional PKI and modern FIDO2 security, without compromising on usability or affordability.”
Using EZCMS, organizations can now automate the entire onboarding experience:
We are incredibly proud of this partnership and what it means for the future of secure identity in Entra ID. By combining the best-in-class hardware from Authentrend with the simplicity and scalability of EZCMS, we are lowering the barrier to true phishing resistance—for everyone.
“We are pleased to partner with Keytos to simplify the path to a fully passwordless experience within Entra ID. We believe that combining biometric security keys with CMS (Credential Management System) is becoming increasingly essential for modern enterprises.” - Authentrend CEO, Zake Huang
