This fast-paced talk will cover the genesis of the FIDO Alliance, its mission/operations, core principles and evolution over the last year. We will also talk about the basics of how FIDO protocols work, how they fit into the broader identity ecosystem, the benefits of the design and the state of implementation/deployment in the market. This talk is appropriate for both technical and non-technical individuals and will help orientation before diving into the details of the specific FIDO protocols.
