MFA Without Phones

Secure Authentication Without Personal Devices or External Hardware

When mobile devices and hardware keys aren't an option, Credenti gives you the freedom to authenticate with enterprise-issued credentials like badges, smartcards, QR, or PIN. Purpose-built for secure, device-restricted environments.

The Problem

Highly regulated and secure environments often prohibit the use of mobile phones, USB keys, or personal authentication devices. These restrictions pose a challenge for organizations seeking to implement modern MFA solutions, as most rely on smartphone apps or external hardware. Many organizations also operate without a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policy or do not issue mobile phones to staff—making it impractical or impossible to rely on phone-based authentication methods. Shared workstations and cleanroom workflows demand a different approach—one that maintains security without introducing friction or requiring personal devices.

The Solution

Credenti enables passwordless, phishing-resistant authentication without relying on phones, Security keys, tokens, or personally managed smartcards. Instead, organizations can configure their environment using familiar, enterprise-approved credentials and devices—such as RFID badges, CAC/PIV smartcards, QR scans, or secure PINs. These factors can be centrally managed and tailored by policy, giving IT teams the flexibility to meet both operational and compliance requirements. The result is secure access—even in the most restrictive settings.

Where It Matters

Semiconductor & Electronics Manufacturing

Workers often rotate across shared cleanroom workstations where phones are banned. Credenti enables badge or PIN-based access that meets both compliance and sterility requirements.

Pharmaceutical Production & Research Labs

In Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) regulated labs where personal devices are prohibited, Credenti allows users to log in securely using QR codes or PIV cards, streamlining authentication across shifts.

Aerospace & Defense Assembly

These secure environments require CAC/PIV smartcard login with full audit trails. Credenti supports seamless card-based authentication without additional hardware.

Food & Beverage Cleanroom Packaging

Eliminate the need for hand-carried tokens or shared passwords in sanitary production zones. Credenti supports usernameless badge login with auditability.

Government & Classified Facilities

Where mobile phones and BYOD are not permitted, Credenti delivers phishing-resistant access using approved smartcards and rotating workstation QR codes. Deliver compliant MFA where mobile devices are prohibited.

The Credenti Differentiator


Enterprise Badge Support

Natively supports the RFID, CAC, and PIV-I cards already deployed for physical access. No need to introduce new hardware or retrain staff.

QR Code Login

Dynamically generated workstation QR codes enable secure access from shared tablets or fixed readers, ideal for cleanrooms and restricted zones.

Policy-Based Flexibility

Admins can define which factors are permitted at specific workstations, departments, or sites—enforcing security posture without sacrificing usability.

Usernameless Login

Users tap a badge or scan a code to log in—no username or password entry required. This reduces errors and speeds up access in high-throughput environments.

Audit-Ready Compliance

Every login is logged, policy-enforced, and mapped to the user identity to meetrigorous standards like NIST 800-63, FIPS 201, HIPAA, CJIS, and PCI-DSS.
Whether badge, QR, or PIN, all authentication events are traceable and ready for audit reporting—noblind spots, no exceptions.
