FIDO (Fast Identity Online) has emerged as a pivotal solution in the realm of authentication, widely regarded as the benchmark for phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) while enhancing user convenience. However, many organizations remain apprehensive about the lifecycle management of FIDO authenticators, which impedes full-scale adoption of FIDO as their primary method for phishing-resistant MFA.

In this presentation will delve into:

- The specific challenges faced by IT security leaders in deploying FIDO keys within their organizations.
- The implications of new standards, such as CTAP 2.1, for organizational deployment.
- Advanced strategies beyond the standard: best practices for the efficient and secure deployment and management of FIDO keys at scale.

Join us to explore practical solutions and gain insights into effectively integrating FIDO into your organization's security infrastructure.
