wwpass Description
WWPass is a global cybersecurity company founded in 2008 that provides passwordless authentication and client-side encryption technology. The company's core offering eliminates traditional username and password-based authentication, replacing it with multi-factor authentication that uses distributed and secure storage mechanisms to protect against data breaches and identity theft. The company's technology is protected by 13 patents in the U.S., Canada, EU, and Japan. WWPass stores sensitive data such as encryption keys and confidential information in distributed storage across twelve data storage nodes hosted on company-owned servers in ISO 27001 and ISO 22301 certified colocation facilities. These keys encrypt data in various storage environments and databases, preventing unauthorized access even if data is stolen. WWPass authentication supports multiple authentication assurance levels, from single-factor to the highest level (AAL3) using cryptographic hardware authenticators. The solution can be implemented using smartphone apps, smart cards, or hardware tokens, with optional PIN protection. The company serves businesses across finance, e-commerce, insurance, software, higher education, and entertainment industries. The team consists of cybersecurity experts, nuclear physicists, military cyber warfare officers, and developers. WWPass maintains offices in Massachusetts and New Hampshire in the U.S., with a European presence in Canton Schwyz, Switzerland. The company is self-certified to the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework.
