Case Study: Leading Venture Capital Firm achieves passwordless protection for sensitive assets with Trusona

Leading Venture Capital Firm Deploys Trusona for Passwordless Authentication to Protect Sensitive Assets

Leading Venture Capital Firm, a Silicon Valley VC managing multi‑billion dollar funds, faced heightened risk from compromised credentials and the shortcomings of traditional 2FA. To eliminate the largest attack vector and integrate smoothly with their existing Okta SSO, the firm selected Trusona’s passwordless authentication solution.

Trusona deployed a dynamic passwordless system that replaced usernames, passwords and SMS/OTP flows with an authorized app/device model integrated into Okta; after a brief pilot of a few weeks the firm procured enterprise‑wide licenses. The result was a measurable reduction in credential-based risk, immunity to SIM‑swap/SMS attacks, rapid time‑to‑value and self‑service onboarding, plus a simpler one‑touch login experience that employees adopted firmwide.
