We are thrilled to announce the release of Hawcx SDK for iOS, our most powerful and secure passwordless authentication solution yet. This major update revolutionizes how users access their accounts across multiple iOS devices while setting new standards for mobile security.
The Evolution of Passwordless Authentication
In today's digital landscape, security can't come at the expense of user experience. This release builds upon our core mission: delivering frictionless, passwordless authentication that's both highly secure and delightfully simple.
The cornerstone of this release is our new Multi-Device Authentication
Multi-Device Authentication system, allowing users to securely access their accounts across all their iOS devices. Whether switching between an iPhone and iPad or setting up access on a new device, Hawcx provides a seamless experience without compromising security. That means the same account can hop from iPhone to iPad without the usual passkey headaches or secure storage requirements.
Multi-Device Authentication: Freedom Without Compromise
With Hawcx SDK, your users can now:
Access accounts across multiple iOS devices with a simple, secure verification process
Add new devices to their accounts through a verification flow
Maintain consistent identity across their entire device ecosystem
Revoke access for individual devices if lost or compromised
The enrollment process is remarkably straightforward:
User enters their email on a new device
Our system recognizes the user but not the device
A one-time verification code is sent to their email
After verification, the device is securely linked to their account
Instant access is granted with our passwordless authentication
Advanced Fingerprinting: A New Layer of Security
As part of this enhanced security launch, we're introducing our next-generation 4-Component Fingerprinting system—a powerful new mechanism for creating unique, tamper-resistant identities for every device-user pair. Here's how it works in detail:
Hardware Key Attestation (HKA): Leverages the device’s native security to produce a cryptographic signature that’s hardware-backed and virtually impossible to spoof.
OS Device Identifier (OSDI): Anchors identity with a persistent, system-level identifier that remains intact even if the app is deleted and reinstalled—ensuring continuity and resilience.
Software & Device Attributes Bundle (SDAB): Gathers a curated set of device traits—such as OS version, screen size, and locale—balanced carefully to maintain user privacy while enhancing reliability.
User Identity Binding: Ties the fingerprint directly to an individual user account, enabling a deeply personalized and context-aware security model.
Together, these components form a robust fingerprint that boosts authentication security across platforms—laying the groundwork for smarter fraud detection, seamless multi-device trust, and a safer user experience.
A Multi-Layered Defense: Why Hawcx Stands Apart
Hawcx’s advanced security architecture is built to resist the most common—and most dangerous—attack vectors in the authentication landscape. Our multi-layered approach combines cryptographic rigor with real-time intelligence to deliver airtight protection:
Zero-Knowledge Proofs: We’ve implemented cutting-edge zero-knowledge protocols that authenticate users without exchanging shared secrets like passwords. This challenge-response mechanism ensures every login attempt is fresh, verifiable, and impossible to replay.
Replay Attack Resistance: Each authentication session is uniquely generated, meaning captured credentials are useless. The system rejects any attempt to reuse a previous authentication message.
End-to-End Encryption: All communication is encrypted from device to cloud, eliminating opportunities for man-in-the-middle interception or data tampering.
Hardware Attestation: Device integrity is verified using hardware-backed cryptographic signatures, making it nearly impossible for attackers to spoof or impersonate legitimate devices.
Brute Force Immunity: Our zero-knowledge framework negates brute force strategies by eliminating guessable credentials entirely—there’s simply nothing to crack.
Together, these layers make Hawcx an exceptionally resilient authentication solution, trusted by security professionals and seamless for users.
Designed for Developers, Built for Users
The Hawcx SDK is crafted to deliver powerful security with effortless integration—making life easier for developers while delivering a seamless experience for end-users. Here's what sets it apart:
Lightning-Fast Integration: Go passwordless in just five lines of code—seriously. We’ve stripped away the complexity to get you up and running in minutes.
Developer-First Documentation: Complete guides, detailed API references, and full sample apps mean you never have to guess your next step.
Smart Error Handling: When something goes wrong, you’ll know exactly why. Our SDK provides clear, actionable error messages to streamline debugging.
Optimized User Experience: The SDK is designed to minimize friction and maximize adoption, with intuitive UI flows that feel native on every platform.
Fully Customizable UI: Tailor the look and feel to match your brand, with flexible theming and layout options that fit right into your app’s design system.
With Hawcx, you don’t have to choose between rock-solid security and developer productivity—you get both, in one elegant package
The Future of Authentication
While this release focuses on multi-device iOS authentication, we are actively working on expanding our ecosystem.Web-to-mobile authentication—covering Android and iOS devices and web browsers on Windows, macOS, and Linux capabilities are in development and will be part of our future releases, creating a truly unified authentication experience across all platforms.
