SecureMetric becomes member in the FIDO Alliance

Tuesday 7 April 2015 00:22 CET | News

SecureMetric, a digital security technology company, has joined the FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) Alliance.

The FIDO (Fast Identity Online) Alliance was formed to address the lack of interoperability among strong authentication technologies, as well as the problems individual users face in creating and remembering multiple usernames and passwords. FIDO Alliance membership includes global leaders in technology and industry.

SecureMetric plans to cultivate authentication by using FIDO specifications which define an open, scalable, interoperable set of mechanisms that supplant reliance on passwords to authenticate users of online services.

SecureMetric is a digital security provider in Southeast-Asia with more than 17 years of experience in serving clients across the region. SecureMetric has implemented high profile two-factor authentication and cryptography projects for well-known financial institutions and government agencies.

The FIDO Alliance 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.
