Irvine-based SecureAuth, an identity security software maker, said it has acquired Acceptto, an emerging firm in passwordless authentication for Internet users.
Portland, Oregon-based Acceptto also specializes in behavioral modeling to infer whether a user is a threat before authentication, during authentication, and post-authorization.
No financial terms were disclosed.
SecureAuth said the acquisition will position it to take advantage of the increasingly strategic need for businesses  to better secure identities to support their growing hybrid workforce.
