In November we took part in Passkeys Week, an industry-wide campaign to accelerate the adoption of passkeys and encourage developers to build passkey support into their apps, websites, and authentication products.
Throughout the week, we released early selections of talks and presentations from our flagship Authenticate 2025 event, shared resources, highlighted passkey success stories from industry leaders, and hosted a live AMA webinar.
In case you missed any of the action on social media, we’ve rounded up everything we shared to help promote the work of those leading the way with passkey deployments and to support everyone on their passkey journey.
Early Access: Authenticate 2025 Presentations
We released early access to select presentations from Authenticate 2025, our flagship conference held in October. These presentations showcase how leading organizations are deploying passkeys at scale and achieving measurable results. These talks are all available to watch on our YouTube channel.

Success Stories
We also shone a spotlight on companies that have made progress on their Passkey Pledge – a call to action for organizations to accelerate passkey adoption. Here are just a few of the success stories we shared:
- Atlancube: The pledge accelerated their certification timelines, helping them prepare to launch a certified hardware security key.
- Dashlane: Integrated FIDO2 security keys to replace the master password with a hardware-backed secret.
- First Credit Union: After rolling out passkeys to their 60,000+ members, 54.5% of all authentications now use passkeys.
- Glide Identity: Achieved FIDO certification for new products to serve organizations seeking interoperable solutions.
- HYPR: Deployed passkeys at scale to Fortune 500 enterprises, including two of the four largest US banks.
- LY Corporation: Improved passkey sign-in rates to 41% and reduced SMS transmission costs by replacing OTPs.
- NTT DOCOMO: Confident of increasing passkey usage by 10% this year by refining user messaging on enrollment pages.
- Secfense: Enabled passkey sign-ins across banking and insurance sectors without modifying legacy applications.
- Thales: Extensively promoted the benefits of passwordless to customers through workshops and webinars.

Resources
Throughout the week, we pointed to key resources to help those implementing passkeys, including:
- Design Guidelines: For consumer use cases, visit PasskeyCentral.org to access the FIDO Alliance Design Guidelines.
- Developer Hub: For technical resources brought to you by the W3C WebAuthn Community Adoption Group and FIDO Alliance, visit passkeys.dev.
- UX Research: Read our blog, “Beyond the Protocol,” co-authored by Patryk Les (Yubico) and Philip Corriveau (RSA), which highlights the human-centered shift defining the future of workforce security.
New Data
We shared new research from our Passkey Index, a confidential survey of nine FIDO Alliance member organizations—Amazon, Google, LY Corporation, Mercari Inc., Microsoft, NTT DOCOMO, PayPal, Target, and TikTok—that have deployed passkeys for 1 to 3 years on eight utilization and performance areas. It shows the adoption and business impact of passkeys from leading service providers. The data reveals that:
- 93% of accounts are now eligible for passkeys.
- 36% of accounts are enrolled with a passkey.
- 26% of all sign-ins now leverage passkeys.

We also highlighted Dashlane’s new report, which offers a one-of-a-kind look at the apps leading the move to passwordless across consumer and enterprise environments globally. You can read the report here.
The Passkeys AMA
To wrap up the educational aspect of the week, we hosted a live, interactive Ask Us Anything (AMA) session. With speakers from Dashlane, FIDO Alliance, Google, and Okta, this webinar was the perfect chance to bring questions about passkey implementation, UX, security, standards, and ecosystem adoption directly to the experts shaping the industry. If you missed the live session, you can still watch it here.
