Describe your service/platform/product and how it’s using FIDO authentication.

Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy smartphones support fast and convenient logins through biometric authentication and FIDO protocols.

What were the challenges you were trying to overcome?

FIDO-based passkeys are transforming the way users access websites and apps by eliminating the need for traditional usernames and passwords. Instead of being stored on a server where they could be exposed, passkeys are securely stored on the Galaxy device, enabling quick and secure sign-ins using biometric authentication.

Why did you choose FIDO authentication over other options? What did you identify as advantages of implementing FIDO?

FIDO enables secure authentication without transmitting users’ biometric data outside the device. Its ease of use, speed, compatibility across services, and status as an industry standard made it a compelling choice for Samsung Electronics.

Describe your roll out of FIDO authentication.

We have integrated FIDO authentication directly into our devices, enabling users to access it out-of-the-box. We continue to expand FIDO support across more Galaxy models and software updates.
