•  FIDO as the Future of Authentication: Traditional password-based systems are vulnerable to phishing, credential stuffing, and other cyberattacks. FIDO (Fast Identity Online) uses public key cryptography to deliver phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication.
  • Implementation Roadmap: Organizations should assess current authentication methods, educate stakeholders, select FIDO-compatible solutions, and roll out the technology gradually to maximize security and user adoption.
  • Security Meets Usability: FIDO enhances security and simplifies the user experience with biometrics, hardware tokens, and multi-device passkeys, offering both protection and convenience.
