Token, Inc., operating as Token, is a next-generation identity assurance company specializing in biometric authentication and cybersecurity solutions. Founded in 2014 and backed by Grand Oaks Capital, the company's mission is to provide provable identity infrastructure for government and enterprise organizations, addressing the critical challenge of credential compromise and the rising threat of AI-driven attacks. Token's operational headquarters are located in Rochester, NY.

Token offers a suite of hardware security products under the TokenCore brand, including the TokenCore Wearable (a biometric ring), TokenCore Portable (a security key), and the TokenCore Node (a biometric authenticator designed for air-gapped and classified environments). These solutions provide phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication by combining wireless biometrics, cryptographic authentication, and physical proximity to ensure human identity is non-transferable and provable. The company's technology integrates with existing Identity and Access Management (IAM), Single Sign-On (SSO), and Privileged Access Management (PAM) tools, serving market segments such as government, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, aerospace & defense, and technology.

In March 2026, Token rebranded its core technology to TokenCore and launched TokenCore.com. The company has recently expanded its identity security architecture to protect enterprise AI agents, making verified human approval a control point for autonomous AI. Token received a Gold Award in the Identity Access Management category at the 2026 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards. Leadership includes CEO Kevin Surace, who was appointed prior to March 2026, and the company has strengthened its board and advisory team with key appointments such as Monique Shivanandan (former HSBC CISO) and Robert Costello (former CISA CIO) in 2026. Token positions itself as a crucial player in securing digital identities against evolving cyber threats, particularly in the AI era.
