October 2021 by Marc Jacob
NEOWAVE is now referenced as a provider of FIDO2 security USB keys and smart cards for Microsoft Azure Active Directory and Windows 10/11.
NEOWAVE’s FIDO2 Winkeo USB keys and Badgeo smart cards meet all Microsoft’s security requirements to authenticate with Azure Active Directory and to log on to Windows 10/11.
NEOWAVE has chosen to implement the FIDO2 protocol in a trusted hardware device that integrates a secure component. The combination of "passwordless" authentication with such hardware device ensures a very high level of security while simplifying the user experience. NEOWAVE’s FIDO range products are 100% designed and made in France and comply with European security requirements.
NEOWAVE FIDO2 USB keys and smart cards main features:
– Credential generation, management and storage (up to 200 in the smart card)

– No software installation needed on the client workstation
– Perfectly suited for digital trust players (electronic signature, encryption, registered letter, con-sent, financial services, insurance, health, etc.).
