"Take your authentication beyond passwords" by Pradheepa P

According to Verizon DBIR Report 2023, 80% of web application attacks are due to stolen credentials/passwords. While MFA is introduced to reduce the attacks, it is not immune to phishing. It's time to think beyond passwords. FIDO2 standards define specifications to go passwordless. Let us see what the standards define and how to implement them.

Pradheepa is an Auth0 Staff Developer Advocate at Okta, with a real love for backend and open-source technologies. She has worked in enterprise and web technologies for over a decade. She is also an active member of Women Who Code, Singapore Chapter, and mentors women to step into the software industry. She loves to read and spends time with her family in her spare time.
