About Authenticate 2025

Now in its 6th year, the FIDO Alliance-hosted Authenticate Conference has become renowned for its high-quality content and vibrant community of professionals committed to advancing passkeys and related technologies to create a more secure web. 

The focus of the program for the Authenticate 2025 conference is “achieving usable security across the account lifecycle,” with a focus on deeper dives on how to achieve phishing-resistant authentication with passkeys and the adjacent areas necessary to achieve end-to-end account security with usability in mind.

Content will include passkey implementation case studies, best practices, and platform-specific masterclasses, and sessions on:

  • account onboarding
  • remote identity verification and proofing
  • authorization
  • biometrics
  • session security
  • device onboarding and authentication
  • cybersecurity/fraud threats and detection
  • digital identity/digital wallets
  • the future of digital identity and authentication

Join us at Authenticate 2025 and be part of shaping the future of digital identity and security.
