1Kosmos, a leader in unifying identity proofing and passwordless authentication, announced the availability of 1Kosmos Workforce on Google Cloud Marketplace, providing customers with a simplified way to deploy high-assurance workforce identity verification and passwordless authentication services on Google Cloud.
Google Cloud Marketplace lets users quickly deploy functional software packages that run on Google Cloud infrastructure, and easily start up familiar software packages with services like Compute Engine or Cloud Storage, with no manual configuration required.
As organizations face increased risks from remote hiring fraud, credential theft, service desk social engineering, and AI-enabled impersonation, 1Kosmos gives security and identity teams a way to bind access to verified identity rather than relying only on credentials.
