FIDO Authentication, developed by the FIDO Alliance, is a global authentication standard based on public key cryptography.

FIDO Authentication provides a simpler user experience with phishing-resistant security

With FIDO Authentication, users sign in with phishing resistant credentials, called passkeys. Passkeys can be synced across devices or bound to a platform or security key and enable password-only logins to be replaced with secure and fast login experiences across websites and apps.

Passkeys are more secure than passwords and SMS OTPs, simpler for consumers to use, and easier for service providers to deploy and manage.
