credentialless

Lacking proof identity

Credentialless describes access or authentication that doesn't require traditional login credentials like usernames and passwords.

In web security, a credentialless iframe loads content without sending cookies or other identifying information to the embedded site, limiting cross-origin data exposure.

More broadly, credentialless can describe any system designed to function without verifying identity: The API offers a credentialless mode for public data.
