When we think about user security, many of us who develop apps reach for implementing a Login Box. But in the modern world of software development, there’s more to giving users a safe and secure experience than simply verifying their credentials. I’m here to tell you why employing a Customer Identity solution should be your preferred option of choice and why it provides you with so much more than just user authentication.
