Things To Know About FIDO2 Certification

 

FIDO’s certification programs are very important when it comes to ensuring an interoperable ecosystem of products and services that organizations can leverage to deploy FIDO Authentication solutions worldwide. The FIDO Alliance manages functional certification programs for its core specifications to validate product conformance as well as interoperability, and in addition it has introduced programs for delineating security capabilities of FIDO Certified Authenticators and to test and validate the efficacy of biometric components.

FIDO certification brings a lot of benefits to vendors, deploying organizations as well as end users alike.   For vendors, earning the FIDO(R) Certified mark validates to customers the integrity of their product, meaning that the product adheres to the FIDO Specifications and interoperates within the marketplace – for example, a FIDO2 Certified Server can accept any FIDO2 Certified authenticator, regardless of its manufacturer.

This certification also best-positions these vendors to respond to the growing number of RFPs that list FIDO Certified as a requirement for bid submission. Authenticator vendors can further differentiate themselves from their competitors by certifying the security characteristics of their implementations, which can be reflected in the corresponding certification marks at one of three levels.

For deploying organizations, the FIDO Certification program allows them to build and purchase best-of-breed authentication solutions that have been tested and proven to be interoperable and adhere to the FIDO specifications. Likewise, the end users will be able to simply leverage authenticators that work across devices and websites.

The FIDO Alliance actively promotes members with FIDO Certified product offerings, through unique opportunities with the aim of showcasing FIDO Certified solutions at conferences, seminars and through the FIDO Certified Showcase. The FIDO Certified program is open to both members and non-members alike, even though FIDO Alliance members uniquely will get discounts on certification testing and also gain exposure to added co-marketing opportunities.
