Social engineering is the new frontier of identity risk. In fact, 60% of breaches now rely on social engineering techniques to target user identities, including attacks during helpdesk calls and remote onboarding. Traditional MFA alone cannot close these gaps.

Learn about Duo Identity Verification (IDV), a security-first capability (powered by Persona) that strengthens vulnerable touchpoints by providing seamless, high-assurance identity verification without adding friction for users or complexity for administrators. Duo IDV helps organizations stop compromised support interactions and prevent fraudulent employee enrollments, enabling a resilient defense against social engineering attacks.

This session will spotlight practical use cases in help desk verification and remote onboarding, highlighting how these solutions streamline identity verification while gaining higher identity assurance in vulnerable moments.

Register for this webinar where we’ll discuss how to:

  • Learn why the helpdesk has become a prime target for social engineering and how to close that gap

  • See how Duo Identity Verification integrates seamlessly into helpdesk workflows to verify users with confidence

  • Get a first look at our new remote onboarding use case, designed to ensure identity assurance from day one

  • Hear real-world insights from a customer already using Duo Identity Verification: benefits, challenges, and lessons learned

Join us to explore how the new Duo Identity Verification feature will help your organization to reduce social engineering risk while preserving a simple, user-friendly experience and straightforward deployment.
