Works with uTrust FIDO2
Check out a few of the 900+ apps compatible with uTrust FIDO2 Security Keys.
What Is FIDO?
Based on free, open standards from the FIDO Alliance, Fast IDentity Online authentication enables password-only logins to be replaced with secure, fast login experiences across websites and apps. This is accomplished by using standard public-key cryptography to provide strong authentication and leave zero data at rest. FIDO U2F is an open standard that provides added security and simplifies Universal 2-Factor authentication.
FIDO2 is the term for FIDO Alliance’s newest set of specifications. FIDO2 enables users to leverage common devices to easily authenticate to online services in both mobile and desktop environments. The FIDO2 specifications are the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Authentication (WebAuthn) specification and FIDO Alliance’s corresponding Client-to-Authenticator Protocol (CTAP).
How Does FIDO Work?
During registration with an online service, the user’s client device creates a new key pair. It retains the private key and registers the public key with the online service. Authentication is done by the client device proving possession of the private key to the service by signing a challenge. The client’s private keys can be used only after they are unlocked locally on the device by the user. The local unlock is accomplished by a user inserting a uTrust FIDO2 Security Key or pressing the NFC button on the security key.
Top Ten Reasons to Trust FIDO
- Based on public-key cryptography (keys stay on the device)
- No server-side shared secrets to steal
- Protects against phishing, man-in-the-middle, and replay attacks
- No linkability between services or accounts and no third party in the protocol
- Lower development/maintenance costs and little-to-no provisioning costs
- Faster time to market, user-friendly, and future-proof
- Lower breach risks, potential damages, and password reset costs
- Supports both contact (USB A/C) and contactless (NFC) use cases
- Multi-protocol FIDO U2F, FIDO2, smart card (PIV), and OTP support
- Trade Agreements Act (TAA)-compliant and assembled in the U.S.A.
