Instead of relying on passwords and additional verification steps, it uses on-device biometric authentication, and secure hardware to verify a user's identity. Biometric data stays on the device, and security keys are created and stored locally, helping protect against phishing, credential theft, and other common cyberattacks.

“Token is solving one of the most critical challenges in cybersecurity today securing identity in a world where credentials are constantly compromised,” said Liu. “The opportunity to translate this level of innovation into market adoption and measurable growth is incredibly compelling and I’m excited to help accelerate that next phase.”
