Security expertise / Authentication

OPAQUE authentication, assessed for your system.

OPAQUE lets a client and server authenticate and agree a key without revealing the password to the server. We assess how this approach fits your product, from account registration to recovery and ongoing operation.

Authentication

Decide where OPAQUE belongs in your sign-in flow.

We map account types, client applications and existing identity services. This shows which part of authentication needs to change and which integrations can remain.

Protocol fit

We compare OPAQUE with your current sign-in options and document the trade-offs. The decision includes multi-factor authentication, account recovery and migration of existing users.

Implementation review

We assess the selected implementation and version against the threat model. Review covers credential storage, key handling, error responses and potential information leaks.

Operational ownership

We assign responsibility for account and device changes, incident response and library updates. The plan includes access recovery and the events operators need to investigate failures.

OPAQUE specification (RFC 9807) covers the protocol, application considerations and implementation safeguards.

Assessment outcomes

A documented decision and integration plan.

The assessment records whether to adopt OPAQUE, the client and server changes, and the migration and recovery flows. It also identifies unresolved risks and the tests or independent review required for the intended release.
