FIDO Alliance Members Introduce FIDO Authentication to Mobile World
Congress 2014
FIDO Ready(TM) Products and Services Define Strong
Authentication That Is More Secure, Private and Easier-to-Use Than
Passwords and PINs
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwired - Feb 6, 2014) - MWC
2014 Barcelona - The FIDO (Fast IDentity Online)
Alliance (http://www.fidoalliance.org/), an industry consortium
revolutionizing online authentication with open standards for
strong authentication, today announced plans for Mobile World
Congress (MWC) taking place in Barcelona, Spain from February
24-27, 2014. FIDO Alliance members will demonstrate FIDO
Ready™ products that illustrate how universal strong
authentication can establish trust and contribute to mobile and
online expansion of services and secure user transactions. FIDO
authentication equips users of online, cloud, and mobile
applications to access sites and services and confirm transactions
with better authentication that is more secure, private, and
easier-to-use than passwords and PINs.
"At Mobile World Congress, FIDO Alliance members will engage the
global mobile community in our important quest for universal strong
authentication. Like the Internet, the mobile industry is limited
until strong authentication standards are ubiquitous. Trust is
foundational to mobile markets -- mobile users who can trust that
the products and services they use are secure and private will
organically push markets for more," said Michael Barrett, president
of the FIDO Alliance. "With FIDO authentication, mobile services
and products become easier to use with authentication that is
simple, yet more secure and private than passwords and PINs."

FIDO
Ready™ Products and Innovative Authentication
at Mobile World Congress FIDO Alliance members participating
with FIDO Ready products and services at MWC include
AGNITiO, Infineon Technologies, Nok Nok Labs, and NXP
Semiconductors.
FIDO Alliance members will demonstrate FIDO Ready
products that are based on FIDO specifications. These solutions
have undergone an interoperability testing process against the
draft specification, hosted by an independent testing organization
and leveraging the Nok Nok Labs Multifactor Authentication Client
and Server. MWC demonstrations of FIDO Ready products will
illustrate the clear value interoperable, easy-to-use, secure and
private authentication devices and solutions can deliver to mobile
platforms, transactions, and users.
Organizations are increasingly challenged to manage user bases
of personal information and passwords. While their users are
increasingly frustrated trying to remember and manage multiple
passwords to access sites and services and confirm actions they
take every day. FIDO innovations address a key pain point for
mobile users and providers, including the range of Relying Parties
offering mobile and cloud services, who currently must attempt to
manage users' passwords across a virulent threat landscape.
Industry-driven FIDO authentication enables existing and new
authentication products and services to deliver better
authentication that overcomes the prevailing reliance on passwords.
Specifications for FIDO authentication outline a model with a core
focus on privacy -- all biometric and/or personally identifiable
information (PII) stays local on the user's mobile device and is
not shared to the cloud or over the network.
- AGNITiO "Voice iD" protects a user from device to call
center, by identifying their unique, natural spoken voice. AGNITiO
will demonstrate Voice iD as a simple, universal way to replace
passwords and PINs when authenticating smartphones, laptops and
applications, and securing digital transactions. See Voice iD in
multifactor demonstrations at Showstoppers, February 23 from 4-7pm
in the Palau de la Musica Catalana; and Oberthur Technologies'
Booth, Hall 6 Stand 6127; and GSMA, The Connected City, Hall 3
Stand 3A11 & 3A31.
- GO-Trust FIDO microSD supports FIDO login and includes
8GB memory capacity for user storage. FIDO microSD will work with
99 percent of existing laptops and personal computers and the one
billion Android devices in the marketplace, making devices FIDO
Ready. For enterprises and end users, microSD will soon be
available at popular online merchants like eBay and Amazon. Demos
of GO-Trust FIDO microSD can be seen at Infineon Technologies
booth, Hall 2 Stand 21 10MR.
- Infineon Technologies will demonstrate multiple FIDO
Ready products for mobile and PC applications that take
advantage of Infineon security controllers. A founding member of
the FIDO Alliance, Infineon strongly focuses on FIDO certifications
in order to equip system providers with secure integration and
management of online credentials. Infineon is committed to enabling
millions of users of PCs, tablets and smartphones to securely
authenticate themselves before executing online transactions.

- Nok Nok Labs will be at GSMA, The Connected City, demonstrating
a combined solution with Oberthur Technologies, showing the UAF
protocol running inside a SIM card on an Android smartphone. Hall 3
Stand 3A11 & 3A31,
- NXP Semiconductors brings Cyber Security to cloud services
through FIDO Ready products, using both UAF & U2F
protocols. Simpler user experience and stronger authentication; NXP
will demonstrate mobile platform integration including a Secure
Element running the Universal Authentication Framework scheme
connecting to a live backend server. Determined to solve online
credentials and sensitive transaction challenges, NXP's Secure
Element brings leading-edge secure connections to cloud services.
Hall 7 Stand 7 C31
- Oberthur Technologies (OT), with fellow FIDO Alliance board
member, Nok Nok Labs, will present a world's first demonstration of
FIDO authentication in a SIM. OT Booth, Hall 6 Stand 6127; and
GSMA, The Connected City, Hall 3 Stand 3A11 & 3A31
- Oberthur Technologies and FIDO Alliance founding member
AGNITiO, in a second demonstration of "convenient security", will
show "My Voice is My Password", the SESAMES award-winning solution
from CARTES 2013. Online and mobile payments and other transactions
are made both easy and secure for users, who employ their unique
voice biometric to confirm transactions, while biometric data and
software are kept safe on a mobile phone's only trustworthy
element: the embedded secure element (eSE). OT Booth, Hall 6 Stand
6127 and GSMA, The Connected City, Hall 3 Stand 3A11 &
3A31
Open FIDO specifications will support a full range of
authentication technologies, including biometrics such as
fingerprint and iris scanners, voice and facial recognition, as
well as further enabling existing solutions and communications
standards, such as Trusted Platform Modules (TPM), USB Security
Tokens, embedded Secure Elements (eSE), Smart Cards, Bluetooth Low
Energy (BLE), and Near Field Communication (NFC). The open
specifications are being designed to be extensible and to
accommodate future innovation, as well as protect existing
investments. FIDO specifications allow the interaction of
technologies within an interoperable infrastructure, enabling
authentication choice to meet the distinct needs of users and
organizations.
About The FIDO Alliance The FIDO (Fast IDentity Online)
Alliance, www.fidoalliance.org, was formed in July 2012 to address
the lack of interoperability among strong authentication
technologies, and remedy the problems users face with creating and
remembering multiple usernames and passwords. The Alliance plans to
change the nature of authentication by developing standards-based
specifications for simpler, stronger authentication that define an
open, scalable, interoperable set of mechanisms that reduce
reliance on passwords. FIDO authentication is stronger, private,
and easier to use when authenticating to online services.
