Before FIDO, implementing authentication beyond a password meant companies have been faced with implementing a range of proprietary tools and protocols. FIDO changed this by standardizing the client and protocol layers. Adopting the FIDO standard opens your brand and your customer-facing apps and portals to a thriving ecosystem of client authentication methods that can be used with a variety of online services in an interoperable manner.
FIDO2 cryptographic login credentials are unique across every website and are never stored on a server. This security model eliminates the risks of phishing, all forms of password theft and replay attacks.
