About this tag
FIDO2 authentication is a passwordless security standard that replaces traditional passwords with phishing-resistant cryptographic credentials. On WindowsForum.com, discussions cover its role in protecting Microsoft 365 environments, where identity security is critical for disaster recovery. FIDO2 authentication uses public-key cryptography, often via hardware security keys or platform authenticators like Windows Hello, to verify user identity without transmitting secrets over the network. This approach mitigates credential theft and replay attacks, making it a key component of modern zero-trust strategies. Topics include deployment in enterprise IT, compatibility with Azure AD and Microsoft Entra ID, and best practices for integrating FIDO2 into existing identity and access management workflows.
