Duesseldorf, Germany, April 23, 2021, certgate GmbH, one of the leading specialists for secure IT Workplace solutions and member of the international FIDO Alliance for years, has announced the new AirID FIDO, an extension of the AirID product family for wireless and password-free login to PC, tablet and online services.

The AirID FIDO is the perfect combination of strong security and high usability. The need for simple but strong authentication is increasing worldwide. Especially with the COVID-19 situation, phishing attacks are rising sharply for home and remote work, and millions of corporate-owned devices are shared on home-office networks. Here, it is critical for enterprises to secure every user at every location. The increasing convergence of personal and professional tasks requires simple solutions that are secure and offer an optimal user experience.

AirID products are “IT SECURITY – MADE IN GERMANY” and have been providing the highest level of security and protection in companies and government agencies internationally for years and are even used by almost all German federal government agencies throughout classified (VS-NfD) information.

With AirID FIDO, all companies and professionals, even without special infrastructure, can use the strong and simple AirID security and thus sustainably protect themselves against account takeovers and thus also avoid DSGVO damage.

“Users today don’t want to think about or pay extra attention to security. IT security simply has to be there in the background to protect. That’s exactly what AirID FIDO is – the wireless key stays in your pocket; no more forgetting, losing, getting stuck – and yet all account data is securely protected.” explains Jan C. Wendenburg, CEO certgate GmbH.
