User Management
Build faster and better with streamlined user management
User management doesn’t have to be a pain, for your customers or for your team. Stytch handles all of the complexity with user management, so that your team can build faster and get back to your product ASAP.
Scale with ease
A few inefficiencies in your user management system won’t necessarily hold you back when your company is small, but as you grow, each extra developer minute or password reset support ticket will start to pinch precious resources and customer patience. For growth-minded companies looking to scale, they need a CIAM partner that simplifies their developer workload and streamlines user and session management, all while keeping your customers and data secure.
Take the headache out of user management
Stytch streamlines user management by abstracting complexity and providing developer guardrails that help protect against fraud and account takeover. Some of those guardrails include:
Account de-duplication
Stytch automatically deduplicates any user that accidentally attempts to log in with different authentication methods – so if a user who created an account with a password tries to log in the next time with Google, we automatically and safely merge those accounts.
Account hijack prevention
Many hackers will try to hijack a legitimate user’s account by creating many accounts with fake passwords and the known email addresses of their victims in order to squat on these accounts and take advantage of apps that don’t practice safe account de-duplication. When Stytch deduplicates accounts, we force a password reset and invalidate any other login methods to make sure only the true owner of the user’s email can get into the account.
User update protections
User information updates such as new phone numbers and email addresses can sometimes accidentally expose an account takeover vulnerability. At Stytch, we’ve put in guardrails to make sure this doesn’t happen, keeping your developers and users secure.
