What is FIDO2
FIDO (Fast Identity Online) is the umbrella term for FIDO Alliance’s newest set of specifications. Passkeys – based on FIDO2 technology – enable users to authenticate quickly and securely to online services without using password anymore. Passkeys & FIDO2 authentication is the industry’s future proof solution to the global password challenge and addresses all the concerns of traditional authentication, by providing phishing-resistant authentication combined with enhanced user experience in both desktop and mobile environments.
As stated on FIDO Alliance’s website, FIDO’s certification programs are critical in ensuring an interoperable ecosystem of products and services organizations can leverage to deploy FIDO Authentication solutions worldwide. The FIDO Alliance offers three certification programs for its core specifications: User Authentication (FIDO2, UAF and FDO), biometric components, and identity verification technologies. These certifications promote security and interoperability throughout account lifecycles. Source: https://fidoalliance.org/certification/
