New FIDO proposal lets you securely move passkeys across platforms
The Fast IDentity Online (FIDO) Alliance has published a working draft of a new specification that aims to enable the secure transfer of passkeys between different providers.
Passkeys are a method of authentication without a password that leverages public-key cryptography to authenticate users without requiring them to remember or manage long strings of characters.
The new specification that FIDO proposes essentially addresses the lack of widely accepted secure standards for credential transfer, eliminating the complications or practical limitations when switching between providers.
The drafts were developed with the contribution of specialists from FIDO associate members and stakeholders like Dashlane, Bitwarden, 1Password, NordPass, and Google.
