Intercede has launched MyID® Authenticate, a FIDO passkey authentication solution for government agencies and enterprises. The platform enables phishing-resistant sign-in to Windows desktops, cloud services and on-premises applications. It will make its international debut at GovWare 2026 in Singapore, October 13–15.

Passwords and one-time codes can be phished, while FIDO passkeys are designed to resist phishing. Each passkey is tied to the genuine website, and its private key remains on the user’s device; there is no shared secret for attackers to steal or replay. However, many organizations have found it difficult to extend passkey use beyond web applications to Windows desktops, legacy applications and VPNs.
