Passwords were never designed for telecom environments operating at national scale. This article explores how passwordless identity architectures—built as core infrastructure rather than login tools—solve long-standing issues around availability, legacy system integration, Zero Trust alignment, and operational resilience. At telecom scale, identity becomes a control plane, not a credential.
