CERTIFICATION GOALS
• Enable implementations to be identified as officially
FIDO certified
• Ensure interoperability between FIDO officially
recognized implementations
• Promote the adoption of the FIDO ecosystem
• Provide RPs with the ability to assess performance
requirements for user authenticators
• Provide the industry at large with a testing baseline
for biometric component performance

LATEST CERTIFICATION UPDATES
• Formal FIDO2 Interop occurred 20-23 August 2018
• Authenticator Certification Program Level 3 and 3+
• Utilizes the Companion Program for Certification
• Biometric Certification Program
• False Accept Rate
• False Reject Rate
• Presentation Attack Detection

FIDO AUTHENTICATOR CERTIFICATION
• The FIDO Authenticator Certification
Program validates that Authenticators
conform to the FIDO specifications
(UAF/U2F/FIDO2) and allows vendors to
certify the security characteristics of their
implementations
• After completing certification, vendors may
use the FIDO logo on their products

LEVELS PICTORIAL
NOTE: For Authenticators that use a biometric the Biometric Certification is required at L2+ and higher.

EXAMPLES

SECURITY EVALUATION
Level 3rd Party Lab Work Required Evaluation Style
L1 None – evaluation is solely by FIDO
Alliance Security Secretariat
• System design review
L1+
(preliminary)
Vendor must hire a FIDO-approved lab • System design review
• Code review
• SW penetration test / attack potential calculation
L2 Vendor must hire a FIDO-approved lab • System design review
L2+
(preliminary)
Vendor must hire a FIDO-approved lab1 • System design review
• Code review
• SW penetration test / attack potential calculation
L3 Vendor must hire a FIDO-approved lab1 • System design review
• Code review
• HW penetration test / attack potential calculation
L3+ Vendor must hire a FIDO-approved lab1 • System design review
• Code review
• HW penetration test / attack potential calculation
1 At level L2+ and higher, it should usually be the case that the platform HW and SW have already been certified and the FIDO
vendor will only need to certify the FIDO-specific requirements (e.g. the authenticator is running on an already-certified TEE,
Secure Element…)

NEW COMPANION PROGRAM
• Companion Programs are independent testing programs which FIDO
partners with to lessen the certification burden
• Example: Common Criteria or ISO/IEC 15408
• The vendor uses a FIDO created mapping document that maps program
requirements from companion program to FIDO security requirements
• The authenticator is evaluated on the delta requirements only
• Companion Programs are currently required for Authenticator Security
levels 3 and 3+

CHANGES AFTER INITIAL CERTIFICATION
Delta Certification is a process to verify that a Certified
implementation still meets requirements for the following
cases:
• Product upgrades
• Version upgrade
• Level downgrades
• Security vulnerability
• Post suspension

CHANGES AFTER INITIAL CERTIFICATION
Derivative Certification:
• Products or services that rely upon existing Certified
implementations for conformance with FIDO specifications
• A Derivative implementation may not modify, expand, or
remove FIDO functionality from the Certified
implementation on which it is based

FIDO CERTIFICATION PURPOSE
The FIDO Biometric Certification
Program is intended to certify biometric
components and/or subsystems and is
independent from Authenticator
Certification Program

TESTING STEP 1: BIOMETRIC SUBCOMPONENT

ALLOWED INTEGRATION DOCUMENT
• Developed by vendor and submitted to lab
• Used to document changes necessary to accommodate integration with
authenticator
• Must include explanation of possible software and hardware changes

TESTING STEP 2: AUTHENTICATOR

AUTHENTICATOR CERTIFICATION
Using a Certified Biometric Subcomponent:
• Optional for Authenticators using a Biometric at L1-L2.
• The Security Requirements enforce Biometric Certification of the
biometric at L3 and higher when a biometric is used in the
authenticator.
• Once L2+ is finalized Biometric Certification will also be required
• Results in a “FIDO Certified” Authenticator

BIOMETRIC DEFINITIONS
• False Accept Rate (FAR): The proportion of verification transactions with
wrongful claims of identity that are incorrectly confirmed
• False Reject Rate (FRR): The proportion of verification transactions with
truthful claims of identity that are incorrectly denied
• Impostor Attack Presentation Match Rate (IAPMR): Proportion of
presentation attacks in which the target reference is matched

BIOMETRIC PERFORMANCE LEVELS
• Biometric Requirements:
• False Accept Rate (FAR): SHALL meet the requirement of less than 1:10,000 for the
upper bound of a 80% confidence interval. FAR is measured at the transaction
level.
• False Reject Rate (FRR): SHALL meet the requirement of less than 3:100 for the
upper bound of a 80% confidence interval. FRR is measured at the transaction
level.
• Presentation Attack Detection: SHALL be performed by the FIDO-accredited
independent testing laboratory on the TOE provided by vendor. The evaluation
measures the Impostor Attack Presentation Match Rate for each presentation
attack type, as defined in ISO 30107 Part 3.
NOTE: FIDO-accredited independent testing laboratory performs live subject scenario testing on the TOE provided by vendor
using a combination of on-line/off-line testing, as well as presentation attack testing, based on ISO 19795-1 and ISO 30107-3.

SELF-ATTESTATION - OPTIONAL
• Biometric Requirements:
• False Accept Rate (FAR): The vendor SHALL attest to an FAR of [1:25,000 or
1:50,000 or 1:75,000 or 1:100,000] at an FRR of 3% or less.
• False Reject Rate (FRR): The vendor SHALL attest to an FRR at no greater than 3%
as measured when determining the self-attested FAR. In other words, self
attestation for FRR is only possible when self attesting for FAR.
NOTE: Self-attestation for FAR and FRR shall be supported by test data and
documented in a report submitted to lab from vendor.

GETTING STARTED: FUNCTIONAL CERTIFICATION
Register for Self-Conformance Test Tool Access :
https://fidoalliance.org/test-tool-access-request/
• For UAF, you will need to complete both automated and manual testing
• UAF Authenticators only will need a Vendor ID:
http://fidoalliance.org/vendor-id-request/
Complete Self-Conformance Testing at least two weeks prior to
interoperability event.
Elect to Participate in Pre-Testing in the two weeks prior to the
interoperability event (recommended)
Register for and attend the next interoperability event:
https://fidoalliance.org/interop-registration/
Next Interoperability Event Host: Seoul, S. Korea, 12-15 November 2018
(Location TBD). Registration opening soon.

INTEROP TESTING OVERVIEW
• Existing Process – Interop Testing
• Interop every 90 days
• Plan ahead! May impact product schedules…
• New Process – On Demand Testing
• Pick your testing date from a calendar
• Servers: remote / virtual testing
• Authenticators: ship device or in-person testing
• Convenience and fast turn-around
