Historically, strong two factor hardware authentication has been too costly and complicated to scale to all businesses and the mass markets. To address this problem, a significant number of large scale online services and financial institutions have joined the FIDO Alliance open standards organization. The presentation will provide a brief history of FIDO standards and discuss how a FIDO enabled device, which has been successfully proven with thousands of users, enables one single and secure device to access any number of online, network or mobile services - with no drivers or client software needed.
