About Authenticate 2023
It’s time to modernize your authentication! Organizations around the globe are embracing a new way to authenticate with FIDO standards, moving past passwords and legacy forms of multifactor authentication to provide users with passkeys for phishing-resistant sign-ins. Their results? Strong security, lessened data breach risk, improved user experiences, faster sign-in rates, and reduced costs.
Join these industry leaders as they come together at Authenticate 2023, and get the latest tools and insights to get your organization on the path to strong, modern passwordless authentication.
Hosted by the FIDO Alliance, Authenticate is the industry’s only conference dedicated to all aspects of user authentication – including a focus on FIDO-based sign-ins. It is the place for CISOs, business leaders, product managers, security strategists and identity architects to get all of the education, tools and best practices to roll out modern authentication across web, enterprise and government applications.
Authenticate 2023 will be held at the Omni La Costa Resort in Carlsbad, CA, just North of San Diego with a bigger footprint for more attendees, sessions for all levels, a larger expo hall for companies bringing passwordless to fruition, and added opportunities for networking with your peers. The agenda will feature 101s, detailed case studies, technical tutorials, developer meetups, hands on labs, expert panels, and more.
Whether you are new to FIDO, in the midst of deployment or somewhere in between, Authenticate 2023 will have the right content – and community – for you.
Attend Authenticate to:
Go in-depth on the state of authentication today, including: passwords, OTPs and push-based authentication; FIDO and W3C standards; single sign on solutions; decentralized authentication; biometrics and FIDO security keys; and risk-based authentication mechanisms.
Build your authentication strategy with content on IAM integration, the value of certification and metadata service for assessing risk, and FIDO’s relationship to broader identity topics including identity verification, account recovery and blockchain.
Meet the practitioners that have implemented modern authentication platforms with FIDO in enterprise, commercial and government settings. Get step-by-step information on how they did it, the challenges they faced & the results they achieved.
Discover the unique authentication requirements in IoT, payments, healthcare and government; and how FIDO fits with initiatives like W3C Web Payments, EMVCo 3DS and SRC, and Project Verify.
Get a broad view on how moving to modern authentication can help your company meet global regulatory requirements.
