Intercede MyID is the first CMS to support FIDO enterprise attestation.

MyID CMS and Yubico integration delivers complete solution for enterprise
passkey management

Intercede, the leading cybersecurity software company specialising in digital
identities, today announces that the latest version of its credential
management system - MyID CMS - is the first to support Enterprise Attestation
within the FIDO authentication framework. Integrated with Yubico's
industry-first Enterprise Attestation-enabled security keys - the YubiKey,
MyID CMS v12.15 delivers a complete solution for organisations requiring the
highest levels of security and device control.

Enterprise Attestation represents a critical advancement in enterprise
security architecture, providing organisations with the ability to identify
and verify individual authenticators before allowing access to regulated and
protected environments. Unlike standard FIDO implementations that prioritise
user privacy through anonymous attestation, Enterprise Attestation enables IT
administrators to maintain precise visibility and control over security
devices deployed across their organisation.

Allen Storey, Chief Product Officer at Intercede said:

"Our customers are often used to the levels of control, management, tracking
and traceability that PKI smart cards provide, where each device has a unique
serial number that ensures they are only issuing keys that they own.
Enterprise Attestation enables FIDO authenticators to be uniquely identified,
bringing the increased security and visibility that our high-assurance
customers require.

Organisations can now deploy passwordless authentication at scale while
maintaining the device-level control that enterprise security policies demand.
This combination of security and manageability removes the final barriers to
widespread FIDO adoption in regulated environments."

The new capabilities within MyID CMS addresses a persistent challenge in
enterprise FIDO deployments: the gap between strong authentication and
organisational control. With Enterprise Attestation, only approved,
company-issued authenticators are permitted to be issued to access sensitive
systems, while maintaining detailed audit trails of device management across
the organisation.

Key benefits of the integrated solution include:

·    Device-level visibility: Complete tracking and management of security
keys throughout their lifecycle

·    Policy enforcement: Granular control over which devices can access
specific resources

·    Audit compliance: Comprehensive logging and reporting for regulatory
requirements

·    Risk mitigation: Immediate ability to identify and revoke compromised
or lost devices

·    Seamless integration: Native support within existing identity and
access management infrastructure.

In addition to Enterprise attestation, MyID CMS v12.15 adds support for PIN
management features including minimum PIN length and forcing a PIN change at
first usage. These enable 'issue on behalf of' scenarios and bring additional
organisational control and security benefits.

Intercede's collaboration with Yubico gives organisations access to the
complete technology stack needed for the deployment of YubiKeys at scale.
YubiKey's are the first hardware authenticators to implement Enterprise
Attestation capabilities, providing the foundation for the MyID CMS platform.

Jeff Wallace, SVP of Product at Yubico said:

"Enterprise Attestation is a critical capability for organisations that
require precise control over their security infrastructure, enabling them to
more easily track and allow only trusted and approved devices that are
designed and configured specifically for the customers unique needs.

Our partnership with Intercede provides enterprises with a complete ecosystem
for deploying FIDO authentication, while preserving the device-level
visibility and management required in regulated environments."

Enterprise Attestation functionality is particularly valuable for
organisations with strong security requirements, including government
agencies, financial services, healthcare, and critical infrastructure
providers. These sectors often require detailed device tracking and the
ability to restrict access to only pre-approved authenticators.

Intercede and Yubico will be providing in-depth education sessions on
Enterprise Attestation implementation at the upcoming Authenticate conference
