What is TypingDNA's ActiveLock Continuous Endpoint Authentication and how does it work?
ActiveLock continuously authenticates users on company devices by analyzing typing biometrics—the micro-patterns in how users press, release, and move between keys. It provides real-time monitoring and reports, helping prevent unauthorized use of company computers and ensuring only the true, authorized users are at the keyboard.
How does TypingDNA's 2FA without a phone feature work?
2FA without a phone uses typing biometrics to verify identity when users type a short sequence of words (often described as four words). It delivers a frictionless MFA experience and can be used directly on websites/apps or integrated through your IAM via OpenID Connect as an External IdP/EAM with IAMs such as Okta, Ping Identity, or Microsoft Entra ID.
Can TypingDNA prevent device sharing, and how?
Yes. ActiveLock prevents device sharing by continuously authenticating each user’s identity based on their unique typing patterns, ensuring that every person at the computer is the true authorized user—an especially important guardrail for remote work.
Can TypingDNA 2FA be used with my IAM (Okta, Ping Identity, Microsoft Entra ID) via OIDC?
Yes. Verify 2FA is available as External IdP/EAM through OpenID Connect (OIDC) integration, effectively working with IAMs such as Okta, Ping Identity, and Microsoft Entra ID.
What is Verify 2FA and how can I use it?
Verify 2FA is TypingDNA’s frictionless MFA solution that enables “2FA without phones” for your authentication flows. It can be used directly with your websites or apps or integrated through your IAM provider via OIDC to support workforce MFA without relying on phone-based codes.
What is the Authentication API and how is it priced?
The Authentication API lets developers integrate typing biometrics into their applications. Pricing is $1 per internal user per month and $0.20 per external user per month, plus $0.04 per authentication.

How does typing biometrics work?
Typing biometrics analyzes micro-patterns in how users type—such as the time it takes to press and release keys and the intervals between keystrokes. When users register, samples of their typing behavior are analyzed and used for future authentications, leveraging AI-based technology to improve security and accuracy.
