As both technology and adversarial attacks evolve, the way we authenticate ourselves online becomes increasingly critical – and intriguingly, more invisible with advances like IMFA.

In this talk, we will embark on a journey through the history of credentials, beginning with the humble password. We'll uncover the quirky and creative ways in which people have enhanced security practices around storing and managing credentials, tackled phishing attacks, secured single-page apps, and addressed the age-old problem of the post-it note.

Concluding our exploration, we'll delve into concrete examples of WebAuthn and Passkeys, and how they, along with invisible MFA, offer improved security and user experience. Join us for an engaging session where learning about digital security is as entertaining as it is essential!
