Currently I am working on implementing/supporting WebAuthN in my service (JAVA). I have a Control Plane which handles the registration ceremony and Data Plane that handles the authentication ceremony. I am using WebAuthN4J. The persistent … Continue reading Is clientDataJson and attestationObject required to verify assertion during authentication in WebAuthN?
Security Noob here. I am trying to build a secure passwordless login mechanism for my webservice.
The authentication mechanisms
My idea is to encourage the users to use the following two login methods:
WebAuthn with a FIDO2 token (ideally… Continue reading Best Practices for WebAuthn FIDO2 reset
Passkeys prevent phishing, no one can make you login remotely (without exploits) and if they are hardware based and never leave the hardware, them even exploits might have a hard time getting them.
However, very simple exploits could still… Continue reading Is there an equivalent to passkeys but to prevent cookie stealing?
Previously some good fellow explained the importance of verifying the public key created and offered by authenticators.
As before, given the complexity of a FULL implementation of RP operation, I believe it’s possible that some aspect may … Continue reading Suggestions for implementing a simplified subset of WebAuthn Relaying Party Operation
Through reading the WebAuthn spec and related MDN docs, I understand that unlike "certificate signing requests", FIDO/Passkey can have various different attestation formats and verification methods/algorithms during public-key cr… Continue reading Will sky fall if I don’t verify `AuthenticatorAttestationResponse`?
In this question: Is FIDO2 authentication vulnerable to a social engineering replay attack?
it was answered that no, not vulnerable because "the keypair used to by the FIDO device to authenticate with the credential harvesting site w… Continue reading Is FIDO authN vulnerable to relay attacks?
Why does FIDO2’s spec not mention FIDO UAF as a related standard? I wonder if FIDO UAF is still relevant. Will FIDO UAF be deprecated eventually in favor of FIDO2? Why do they co-exist if they fulfil the same purpose?
What I already know:

Where/what are the technical specifications to sync FIDO passkeys?
FIDO passkeys are a quite hot topic. There is a white paper from FIDO Alliance about it. Several websites provide abstract descriptions which leave a lot to be desired in t… Continue reading FIDO Multi-device Authentication Sync Technical Specification
The FIDO Alliance’s Andrew Shikiar explains how passkeys are quickly replacing passwords as the next-generation login, a low friction, high security protocol for any device.
