"To me, both announcements are part of the broader story of the industry working together to stop our dependence on passwords," Andrew Shikiar, CEO of the FIDO Alliance, stated. "And when it comes to CXP, we have all these companies who are fierce competitors willing to collaborate on credential exchange." This statement underscores the collaboration within the tech industry aimed at transitioning from traditional passwords to more secure passkeys.
"CXP comprises a set of draft specifications developed by the FIDO Alliance's 'Credential Provider Special Interest Group.' Development of technical standards can often be a fraught bureaucratic process, but the creation of CXP seems to have been positive and collaborative." This highlights the successful collective effort in establishing new standards for passkeys.
The announcement of a new technical specification called Credential Exchange Protocol (CXP) will facilitate portable passkeys across digital ecosystems, addressing user demands for better usability.
A new resource hub, Passkey Central, is set to assist developers and system administrators, providing tools for implementing passkeys on existing digital platforms, further simplifying the transition from passwords.
