The FIDO Alliance has released a major update to its Metadata Service (MDS) that is intended to improve how relying parties vet passkey and FIDO authenticator devices, with a particular focus on compliance, security assurance, and user experience. In a news post announcing the changes, FIDO describes the new MDS v3.1 and v3.1.1 releases, along with a new Convenience Metadata Service, as a critical step in supporting the continued evolution of the FIDO ecosystem.
