Key points:

- This partnership looks to increase the robustness of its technological infrastructure and enhance the login process
Supplier Continent 8 Technologies has entered a new partnership with multi-factor authentication (MFA) provider Miracl for the integration of passwordless technologies, as the company aims to streamline its authentication process.
As per the newly brokered agreement, Continent 8 has now implemented Miracl’s single-step MFA solution as it looks to strengthen its security. Miracl currently yields a login success rate of 99.9% on average.
This latest move from Continent 8 comes as part of its recently initiated technological streamlining and global expansion campaign, which saw the supplier announce its entry into the Brazilian market in April. More recently, the company also looked to further enhance its cybersecurity infrastructure in partnership with Sportingtech.
Earlier this year Continent 8 Technologies walked home with its third Global Gaming Awards for ‘Corporate Service Provider of the Year,’ as well as being named the ‘Service Provider of the Year’ at the Global Gaming Awards EMEA ceremony in London.
David Brace, Principal, Innovation & Technology at Continent 8, spoke on the new partnership agreement: "Speed, uptime, compliance and security are the pillars of our business, whether it be infrastructure, connectivity or the protection of digital assets. By partnering with Miracl, we add an MFA service that protects players from fraud and cyber attacks, meets regulatory compliance and offers operators a swift, password-less MFA experience.
"This strategic alliance is a significant step forward in our ongoing mission to be the trusted cybersecurity and infrastructure partner for the regulated iGaming and online sports betting industry."
Rob Griffin, CEO at Miracl, also commented: “The shift to mandated MFA by regulators is set to be a massive change in the industry with requirements changing quickly across the globe. Miracl meets 100% of these requirements for 100% of users while also massively improving their experience.”
