Security and identity professionals can now register for the FIDO Alliance’s inaugural Authenticate conference. The event was originally scheduled to take place in June, but was pushed back to November and then converted to a virtual format due to COVID-19.  

Authenticate is now set to run from November 9-19, with an agenda that includes six full days of sessions, talks, and other programming. Registration for the virtual event is free, and grants full access to the conference, including the keynote presentations and the virtual expo hall.
