Yubico will host a virtual developer hackathon for the FIDO Alliance developer community on August 5 to give developers an early look at the company’s upcoming YubiKey 5.8 firmware release and its support for CTAP 2.3 capabilities.

Participants will receive a limited edition YubiKey 5C NFC running the upcoming 5.8 firmware. They aim to give developers direct access to new FIDO2 capabilities in a hardware authenticator. Developers will be able to experiment with how the updated firmware behaves in practical authentication, identity, and authorization flows.
