Before Development

This chapter describes information for the specific implementation of passkey authentication into applications using the YubiOn FIDO2 Server Service, but we recommend that you establish a strategy and policy for passkey implementation before development.

  • Agreement within the company and team
    • Confirmation of business goals to be achieved by introducing passkeys (improved security, increased customer satisfaction, increased revenue, etc.)
  • Formulation of implementation policy for ID management and authentication
    • Establishment of implementation specifications for passkey registration, authentication, and management functions within the application’s usage flow
    • Consideration of supported environments (browser, OS, passkey type, etc.) and confirmation that there are no discrepancies with the actual user environment
    • When introducing to an existing application, formulation of a migration strategy from the existing authentication method

These are just a few examples, but as with the functional development of a normal application, it is necessary to plan sufficiently before implementation.

Info

For information on research and planning before introducing passkeys, much information is available at Passkey Central provided by the FIDO Alliance. We recommend that you read it in advance.
