The FIDO Alliance has fifteen active Working Groups, chartered to facilitate the Alliance\u2019s technical and market adoption objectives. Participation in the FIDO working groups is open to all Board and Sponsor members, with Associate members able to participate on invite-only basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mission of the FIDO2 Technology Working Group is to consider future requirements, and to ensure widespread interoperability within the authentication<\/a> ecosystem among devices, clients, and servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chair: Christiaan Brand, Google<\/em> The Device Onboarding<\/a> Technical Working Group (DO TWG) has been established to develop use cases, target architectures, and specifications covering the following topics: IoT Device Attestation\/Authentication profiles to enable interoperability between relying parties and IoT devices, automated onboarding, and binding of applications and\/or users to IoT devices, IoT device authentication and provisioning via smart routers and IoT hubs, and gap analysis and extensions\/modifications (where necessary) of existing FIDO specifications related to IoT authentication, platforms and protocols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Gerardo Diaz Cuellar, Microsoft<\/em> The Metadata Service Working Group manages the FIDO Metadata Service, co-ordinate with the Technical and Security Requirements Working Groups to ensure any required modifications of the metadata are accommodated, and promote the use of the Metadata Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chair: Rolf Lindemann, OneSpan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The mission of the UAF Technology Working Group is to develop the FIDO Technology Specifications necessary to create and ensure the viability and widespread interoperability of the authentication security ecosystem between devices, clients and servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chair: Rolf Lindemann, OneSpan<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Biometrics Working Group (BWG) develops and maintains a framework for the certification of biometric<\/a> subsystems (components) that can in turn be integrated into FIDO authenticators and other industry products (e.g. IoT devices and identity verification systems) and ensures the harmonization across other Working Groups relating to biometrics, and (any) implications to the FIDO brand. The BWG acts as the primary strategic, advisory and working body of the FIDO Alliance<\/a> with regard to defining all biometric performance criteria and testing processes and procedures of biometric subsystems for the Biometrics Component Certification Program, and facilitates the effective communication, both internally and externally, about product certification and its impacts to the FIDO brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Donna Barrett, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Digital Credentials Working Group’s (DCWG) mission is to utilize the FIDO Alliance’s broad membership and unique standing within the credentials ecosystem. The goal is to tackle gaps in the verifiable digital credentials ecosystem, specifically concerning certification, deployment, developer experience, security, and privacy. Additionally, the DCWG will advise existing groups on enhancing FIDO protocols to provide improved support for the ecosystem. Furthermore, members of this group will act as subject matter experts and internal advisors within the FIDO Alliance, offering guidance on all matters related to the verifiable digital credentials ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Lee Campell, Google<\/em> The IDWG has been created to establish possession-based Identity Verification<\/a> (and Binding) performance requirements, develop certification assessment criteria for those requirements (in collaboration with the Certification Working Group) and create white papers and other materials that support the adoption of these requirements and FIDO certification<\/a> criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chair: Paul Grassi, IDEMIA<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Security and Privacy Requirements Working Group (SPWG) will define the policy and process for which privacy and security of FIDO implementations will be evaluated, especially including the ongoing evolution of privacy, security requirements and threats. The purpose of these security requirements is to produce security certified FIDO implementations in a way that is meaningful to relying parties, users, and B2B consumers of FIDO implementations, including security metadata and security certificates. The SPWG will not mandate security, but provide information and certifications and let the market decide whether or not FIDO implementations should be security certifications. In addition, the SPWG will provide privacy-related expertise and guidance to the FIDO Board of Directors and develop privacy-related recommendations to FIDO Working Groups who submit Specifications and Other Publications to the group for review. The group will also provide guidance for privacy-related messaging for all relevant public communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Beatrice Peirani, Thales<\/em> In order to accelerate overall deployments of FIDO solutions and achieve the FIDO Alliance\u2019s vision for a strong, interoperable modern authentication ecosystem, the CDWG will act as subject matter experts and internal advisors within the FIDO Alliance on issues affecting the deployment of FIDO solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Tatsuya Karino, Mercari In order to accelerate enterprise deployments of FIDO solutions and achieve the FIDO Alliance\u2019s vision for a strong, interoperable modern authentication ecosystem, the EDWG will act as subject matter experts and internal advisors within the FIDO Alliance on issues affecting the deployment of FIDO solutions at the enterprise level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Sean Miller, RSA<\/em> In order to accelerate enterprise deployments of FIDO solutions across the globe and achieve the FIDO Alliance\u2019s vision for a strong, interoperable modern authentication ecosystem, the GDWG will act as subject matter experts and internal advisors within the FIDO Alliance on issues affecting the deployment of FIDO solutions by governments for both enterprise and consumer\/citizen-facing applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Joe Scalone, Yubico<\/em> The Payments Working Group (PWG) defines FIDO solutions that can best address payment use cases and requirements. The PWG will also act as subject matter experts and internal advisors within the FIDO Alliance on issues affecting the use of FIDO solutions for payment use cases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Henna Kapur, Visa The UX Working Group acts as UX subject matter experts to the FIDO Board and Working Groups, encompassing the broad perspectives of end users, developers, RPs, vendors, and FIDO Alliance. The group identifies usability challenges within the FIDO ecosystem and comes up with recommendations for solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Mitch Galavan, Google The mission of the FIDO China Working Group is to facilitate communication and cooperation within the China authentication industry to promote deployment of FIDO solutions, improve FIDO awareness and collect regulatory requirements from the Chinese industry and government, working closely with policy makers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Henry Chai, Lenovo The FIDO Europe Working Group will facilitate communication and cooperation within the European market to promote deployment of FIDO solutions, improve FIDO awareness and collect regulatory requirements from the relevant European stakeholders. Working closely with policy makers, it will coordinate any communication, information and education sessions, in alignment with the relevant FIDO groups, in particular with respect to PSD2, eIDAS, and GDPR requirements and the role of FIDO authentication in products and services subject to those regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Co-Chair: Adrian Portelli, Visa The FIDO India Working Group will facilitate communication and cooperation within India\u2019s authentication and IT industry to promote deployment of FIDO solutions, improve FIDO awareness and analyze regulatory requirements by working closely with policy makers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chair: Niharika Arora, Google The mission of the FIDO Japan Working Group is to: 1) facilitate communication and cooperation within the FJWG members to help deployment of FIDO solutions, and improve FIDO awareness; 2) provide opportunities for Japanese markets and enterprises to obtain the information and knowledge of FIDO Alliance and its contributions for their businesses; and, 3) support the promotion and education of FIDO Alliance in Japan.
