Passkeys Explained: FIDO’s Passwordless Authentication Deep Dive

In this session, David Turner from the FIDO Alliance and Christian Brand from Google dive deep into the concept of passkeys, a revolutionary solution for passwordless authentication. FIDO has been the gold standard for security with its specifications like WebAuthn and CTAP, published in 2019. Passkeys represent the next step in this evolution, offering enhanced security and user convenience.
Passkeys use public key cryptography to eliminate the need for passwords, making them phishing-resistant and easy to use across multiple devices. However, understanding and implementing passkeys can be challenging. This session aims to demystify the process, explain how passkeys work, and provide practical implementation tips.
In this video, you will learn:
What passkeys are and how they work
The benefits of passkeys over traditional passwords and MFA methods
How to implement passkeys in your applications
Real-world examples and demos of passkeys in action
Future developments and timelines for passkeys across different platforms
