A new report from the FIDO Alliance aims to understand the state of passkey deployments by enterprises in the U.S. and UK, including methods for deploying FIDO passkeys, total employees enrolled and perceived barriers to deployment.

Based on a survey of 400 IT professionals (200 from each country), the report says passkey adoption for employee sign-ins is a high or critical priority for two thirds of respondents, and that the majority of enterprises have “either deployed or are in the midst of deploying passkeys with goals tied to improved user experience, enhanced security and standards/regulatory compliance.”
