Identity systems were designed assuming authentication attempts are scarce, human-driven, and constrained by effort. That assumption no longer holds. Get the white paper to see the model that replaces it.
Automated infrastructure and AI agents now generate authentication attempts at machine speed with near-zero marginal cost. Credential stuffing, MFA-fatigue campaigns, and authorization probing can run indefinitely without economic constraint. Pay Factor Authentication™ introduces a different model — economic commitment before authentication attempts occur. AuthLN combines:
Device-bound credentials in the Secure Enclave.
Lightning-settled economic enforcement.
Forward-looking cryptographic resilience.
Full-spectrum identity and economic signal.
