Abstract This article explores the transformative role of biometric and behavioral authentication in the evolving landscape of Identity and Access Management (IAM). As traditional password-based systems increasingly fail to meet the challenges posed by sophisticated cyber threats, these advanced authentication methods offer a promising solution. The article provides a comprehensive overview of physical and behavioral biometrics, examining their integration into multi-factor authentication systems and their capacity for continuous, passive user verification. It delves into the significant security benefits these technologies offer, including enhanced resistance to phishing, social engineering, and insider threats, while also highlighting the improvements in user experience and convenience. The article critically analyzes the challenges and considerations associated with implementing biometric and behavioral authentication, including privacy concerns, data security, accuracy issues, and scalability. Furthermore, it explores future directions and research opportunities in the field, such as advancements in biometric technologies, the application of machine learning and AI in behavioral analysis, and the development of context-aware authentication systems. By synthesizing current research and industry trends, this article provides valuable insights for cybersecurity professionals, IT decision-makers, and researchers interested in the future of secure and user-friendly authentication methods. It underscores the potential of biometric and behavioral authentication to significantly enhance organizational security postures while improving user satisfaction in an increasingly digital world.
