Phishing-resistant sign-in for key roles
Stronger sign-in, made practical.
Deploy hardware security keys and passkeys first where account takeover would hurt most — owners, administrators, finance and other high-risk roles.

Outcomes first
What you actually get
Before the feature list — the day-to-day results this is meant to produce.
Protected high-risk roles
The accounts that matter most are the hardest to phish.
Simpler sign-in
A tap of a key can be faster and less annoying than code apps.
Fewer takeover paths
Phishing-resistant methods close the gap that basic MFA leaves open.
A clear recovery plan
Lost-key situations are planned for, not improvised.

How it works
A calm, documented process
- 1
Plan
We identify who benefits first and confirm Microsoft 365 compatibility.
- 2
Pilot
We roll keys out to a small high-risk group and test everyday use.
- 3
Roll out
We expand in phases, configure passkeys and set recovery keys.
Security is built in
Phishing-resistant sign-in is one of the strongest, most concrete controls a small team can adopt. It will not eliminate every risk, but for owners, admins and finance it closes the exact gap attackers rely on — and it is increasingly asked about on insurance questionnaires.

FAQ
Common questions
Straight answers about price, switching, timing and scope.
Why not just use an authenticator app?
App-based codes and push approvals are a real improvement over passwords alone, but they can still be phished or fatigue-approved. Security keys and passkeys are resistant to those exact attacks, which is why we start with your highest-risk roles.
What happens if someone loses their key?
We plan for that from day one with backup keys and a documented recovery procedure, plus a secured break-glass administrator path so no one is ever locked out.
Do keys work with Microsoft 365?
Yes. Modern Microsoft 365 supports security keys and passkeys. We confirm your specific configuration during planning and note any apps that need attention.
Do keys make us unhackable?
No. They dramatically reduce one of the most common attack paths, but they are one layer of the baseline, not a guarantee. We are always straight about limits.
