FIDO Munich Seminar 2024: Strengthening Authentication with Passkeys in Automotive and Beyond

Overview

The FIDO Alliance recently held a seminar in Munich for a comprehensive dive into FIDO authentication and passkeys. The seminar, co-hosted by Swissbit, provided an exploration of the current state of passwordless technology, detailed discussions on how passkeys work, their benefits, case studies, and practical implementation strategies. Attendees learned about current and emerging elements of the FIDO Certified program and how they pertain across sectors, including a focus on automotive and payments use cases. 

Attendees also had the opportunity to engage directly with those who are currently implementing FIDO technology through open Q&A and networking – plus the opportunity to see demos and meet the experts that can help move FIDO deployments forward.
