Identity Data Management and Analytics Provider Radiant Logic Joins Okta and Ping Identity in Partnership with Badge to Enable Privacy-Preserving Authentication 

Badge Inc., the award-winning privacy company enabling Identity without Secrets™, today launched a new Partner Program and welcomed Identity Data Management and Analytics provider Radiant Logic as its newest partner. Radiant Logic joins Badge’s partner network alongside marquee identity partners, Okta and Ping Identity. The new Badge Partner Program further accelerates the adoption and integration of Badge’s privacy-preserving authentication, enabling even more users to benefit from seamless MFA experiences across any device or application without storing user secrets or private keys.

“We are thrilled to be working with Badge, enabling a best-in-class authentication solution that builds on top of our market-leading identity data management and identity analytics capabilities to provide greater privacy and security to our customers,” said Wade Ellery, Field CTO, Radiant Logic.

The integration of Badge brings downstream value to Radiant Logic customers, allowing employees to enroll once and log into any application via RadiantOne using their preferred biometrics and factors of choice for a safe and holistic user experience across any device. By eliminating passwords and stored secrets, Badge bolsters Radiant Logic’s extensible identity data platform to accelerate strategic initiatives such as digital transformation, Zero Trust, automated compliance, and data-driven governance.

●     Dedicated partner portal with relevant marketing materials to help streamline collaboration and empower partners in promoting Badge’s solutions effectively.

“As organizations continue to realize the importance of privacy-preserving, secure, and user-friendly authentication solutions, our Partner Program is a response to new alliances and integrations with key players across the security ecosystem, moving Badge closer to our vision of becoming the identity backplane of the Internet,” said Charles Herder, Badge Co-founder and MIT Cryptography Ph.D. “By fostering collaborations with industry leaders like Radiant Logic, Okta and Ping Identity, who have some of the largest footprints in the industry, we’re building a world where trust and privacy improve user experience and drive business value instead of being in tension with each other. This sets the stage for a more connected and secure online future for everyone.”

Badge renders PII and biometric credential storage obsolete, eliminating passwords, device redirects, and knowledge-based authentication (KBA). With Badge, the user simply enrolls once, then seamlessly authenticates across ecosystems on any device using authentication factors that are unique and inherent to them. Biometric factors such as fingerprint or face can be combined with other factors to create a strong and convenient MFA method that does not rely on a specific device or token to authenticate users. Badge empowers users to move freely across devices and platforms without losing access to their accounts or compromising security.
