About

Passkeys and FIDO-based authentication raise the security bar – but rolling them out across real enterprise environments isn’t simple. Legacy protocols, long-lived apps, and mixed identity architectures often make “just enable passkeys” unrealistic.

In this session, we’ll help you cut through that complexity.

Part 1 — Independent landscape overview (FIDO Alliance)Nishant Kaushik (CTO, FIDO Alliance) will break down:

the current state of the passkey ecosystem

where phishing-resistant authentication is heading

how standards and enterprise adoption are evolving

This section is fully vendor-neutral and does not endorse any specific solution.

Part 2 — Practical deployment strategies (Secfense)Bartosz Cieszewski (Solutions Architect, Secfense) will walk through how enterprises can introduce passkeys without rewriting existing systems, including:

why passkey rollouts get complicated in hybrid identity environments

how mediation layers / reverse proxies extend FIDO to legacy apps

the value of Mobile-Bound Passkeys for operations and privacy

proven deployment patterns from large organizations

lessons learned from a major financial institution that enabled passkeys across internal + customer-facing systems with minimal architectural change

As part of Passkeys Week, which took place on November 17 – 21, 2025, FIDO Alliance hosted a live, interactive Ask Us Anything (AMA) session designed for developers, product managers, and anyone building—or buying—authentication products and services. Attendees were able to bring your questions about passkey implementation, UX, security, standards, and ecosystem adoption directly to the experts shaping the industry.

Member Webinar: Extending FIDO Authentication from On-Prem to the Cloud
2025-11-19 10:00 - 11:00 (America/New_York)
Many organizations plan on maintaining on-premises resources for the foreseeable future—either because of logistical or security reasons. Whether applications live in the cloud or on-prem, securing authentication and access is non-negotiable. However, security teams struggle to adopt MFA methods that are both resistant to modern attack tactics, while also maintaining a consistent and intuitive user experience, regardless of what (or where) your employees are accessing.

In this webinar, we will discuss why some forms of MFA fall short, and how FIDO security keys have become the new industry standard for phishing-resistant authentication—now supported and supplied by Thales for all your applications in the cloud and on-prem. Get a first-look at these latest innovations and explore what’s possible with passwordless authentication.

Member Webinar: Passkeys & Regulations: How Global Policies Shape Passwordless Adoption
2025-11-19 08:00 - 09:00 (America/New_York)
Event by Secfense | The Fast Track To Passwordless

Passkeys eliminate password-related risks and make organizations phishing-proof, but as global regulations tighten, the question is no longer if you should adopt them, but how to deploy them at scale while meeting regulatory demands.

In this joint session, Jeremy Grant (FIDO Alliance) and Sara Caramitti (Secfense) will explore how global regulators, from the U.S. (NIST, CISA) to the U.K. (NCSC) and the EU (ENISA, NIS2, DORA), are defining the next standard for secure login.

The webinar will connect the dots between regulation, compliance, and real-world deployment of passkeys in large organizations. Attendees will learn how enterprises can move to passwordless authentication without changing application code, how passkeys fit into modern IAM and CIAM strategies, and what regulators actually expect when they say “phishing-resistant MFA.”
