FIDO Taipei Workshop: Securing the Edge with FDO
The document provides an overview and introduction to the Authenticate 2021 conference. It discusses the growing need for strong user authentication given increased cyberattacks. It summarizes the FIDO Alliance's work in developing open authentication standards like WebAuthn and U2F to enable simpler and more secure authentication using public key cryptography and moving away from password-based systems. The document outlines the growing adoption of FIDO standards by companies and devices. It previews sessions and speakers at the conference and next steps for the FIDO Alliance to further authentication security and adoption.
The document provides an overview of the FIDO Universal Authentication Framework (UAF) Reference Architecture. It describes the key components of the FIDO UAF ecosystem including the FIDO UAF client, server, protocols, authenticator abstraction layer, and authenticators. The goals of FIDO UAF are to enable strong, multi-factor authentication across devices and platforms while simplifying integration of new authentication capabilities and preserving user privacy.
A global look at how governments around the world are engaging with strong authentication, and FIDO Authentication in particular.
Learn how FIDO-based authentication can complement federated authentication - and why they are better together. The FIDO Alliance invites you to learn how simplify strong authentication for web services. FIDO specifications can help all organizations, especially service providers who want to scale these features for consumer services over the web. Essentially, FIDO offers a simple, low-cost way to improve security and the online experience.
This document discusses Internet of Things (IoT) cybersecurity compliance solutions and international security standards and certifications. It provides an overview of regulations and standards in the US and EU, including the EU Cybersecurity Act, ETSI EN 303 645, and FDA guidance on medical device cybersecurity. International security certifications like Common Criteria, FIPS 140-3, and IEC 62443 are summarized. Customer requirements from companies like Amazon and industry alliance like CTIA are covered. The document concludes with how manufacturers can respond by using Onward Security's security standards library and key factors for product security.
FIDO Taipei Workshop: Securing the Edge with FDO
FIDO Alliance Osaka Seminar
The Second Payment Services Directive (PSD2) and the associated Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) on strong customer authentication and secure communication impose stringent requirements on multi-factor authentication and on the security of implementations. Payment Service Providers will want to know whether the authentication solutions they put in place conform to the RTS both in terms of functionality and security. The FIDO Alliance standards are based on multi-factor authentication and are a strong fit for PSD2 compliance. The FIDO Alliance’s certification program provides an independent evaluation of functional compliance to the standards as well as of the achieved level of security of FIDO authenticators. Featuring industry experts, this presentation explores how FIDO can resolve key issues, including: • How the FIDO standards conform to the RTS • How FIDO’s certification program guarantees this conformity • How FIDO’s certification program provides for the mandatory security evaluation imposed by the RTS
Governments seek identity solutions that can deliver not just improved Security – but also Privacy, Interoperability, and better Customer Experiences. FIDO delivers on these key policy priorities.
Iveda (OTCQB:IVDA) enables cloud video surveillance via its Sentir® data and video management platform, utilizing proprietary video streaming and Big Data storage technology. Iveda enables a recurring revenue model by global licensing of Sentir to service providers, already earning monthly recurring revenue from their customers, such as telcos, datacenter operators, ISPs, and cable companies.
Iveda is presenting its cloud video surveillance platform, Sentir, to investors. Sentir is a cloud-based video surveillance platform that licenses service providers to deliver video surveillance as a service to their customers. This allows service providers to capitalize on the nearly $60 billion internet video surveillance market without requiring on-site systems or DVRs. Iveda has existing contracts with major telecom providers in Asia that are expected to help the company achieve profitability. Iveda is pursuing an extremely scalable recurring revenue business model by licensing its platform to large service providers with millions of existing customers.
FIDO Taipei Workshop: Securing the Edge with FDO
The document discusses using FIDO authenticators for IoT devices. It presents eWBM's biometric external FIDO authenticator and its security features. Potential applications of FIDO authentication for IoT are then described, including for device authentication over LoRa networks, drone control, and public WiFi access. The use of a BLE FIDO authenticator for personalized smart speaker services is also proposed. The conclusion recommends slimming down the FIDO client for embedded systems and achieving at least Security Level 2 certification for IoT authenticators.
The document discusses FIDO, an authentication framework that aims to replace passwords with stronger authentication methods using public key cryptography. It describes how FIDO works by registering and authenticating users via cryptographic keys on their devices rather than passwords. FIDO promises easier and more secure authentication through standards like U2F security keys and UAF biometric logins. The document outlines the growth of the FIDO Alliance and increasing adoption of FIDO in major companies, operating systems, and governments seeking more secure authentication alternatives to vulnerable passwords.
The document discusses how governments are increasingly prioritizing strong authentication and looking to standards like FIDO to provide more secure, usable and privacy-preserving authentication. It notes that the UK and US governments have highlighted FIDO and endorsed its ability to deliver improved security without passwords. The document also discusses how authentication is an area of regulatory focus due to compliance needs around privacy, security and access across domains like digital government, healthcare, payments and financial services. It argues that FIDO specifications address regulatory needs by providing nimble, configurable and cost-effective strong authentication.
