The FIDO Alliance has taken a big step toward improving the usability of passkeys by introducing two new draft specs: the Credential Exchange Protocol (CXP) and the Credential Exchange Format (CXF). These proposals are designed to solve a key issue slowing the adoption of passkeys in the enterprise: vendor lock-in. While Passkeys bring a solid alternative to traditional passwords, their current implementation leaves users stuck to specific platforms or password managers, making it difficult to switch between services without completely redoing the Passkey setup.
