FIDO/U2F (Fast Identity Online/Universal 2nd Factor) is an open authentication standard that provides a secure and user-friendly way to log in to online accounts using a hardware token or a built-in fingerprint reader. It was developed by the FIDO Alliance, a consortium of companies from the tech industry, with the aim of reducing the reliance on passwords and improving online security.

The #U2F #protocol uses a physical token, typically a USB key, that contains a unique cryptographic key that is used to authenticate the user to a service. When a user logs in to a website, they insert the USB key into their computer and press a button on the key to send a cryptographic challenge to the website. The website then verifies the challenge using the key's stored key, and if the verification is successful, the user is granted access.

The FIDO/U2F standard has been widely adopted by major online services, including Google, Facebook, Dropbox, and GitHub, among others. It is considered to be more secure than traditional password-based authentication methods, as it requires physical access to the key in addition to knowledge of the user's credentials.
