From June 4–6, 2026, MK Group participated in Authenticate APAC 2026 at the Grand Hyatt Singapore as a Branding Sponsor, reaffirming its commitment to advancing secure digital authentication and supporting the global transition toward a passwordless future.

Organized by the FIDO Alliance, Authenticate APAC is one of the Asia-Pacific region's leading conferences dedicated to user authentication, passkeys, phishing-resistant authentication, and identity and access management. The event brings together technology leaders, cybersecurity experts, standards organizations, and enterprises to explore the latest innovations in digital identity and authentication.

As a member of the FIDO Alliance, MK Group showcased its Make in Vietnam authentication technologies developed in compliance with international standards. Featured solutions included the FIDO® KeyPass S1 and FIDO® KeyPass S3 security keys, both certified to the FIDO U2F and FIDO2 standards. These devices enable fast, convenient, and secure passwordless authentication while providing strong protection against phishing and online fraud.

In the financial sector, MK Smart, a member company of MK Group, also introduced its vision for the FIDO Payment Card—an innovative solution that combines a payment card and a FIDO authenticator on a single secure chip. The solution enables digital transaction authentication through on-card digital signatures, replacing passwords and one-time passwords (OTPs) with a simple tap-based user experience while significantly enhancing transaction security.

Through its participation in Authenticate APAC 2026, MK Group further strengthened its engagement with the global digital identity ecosystem while keeping pace with the latest developments in passwordless authentication, digital identity, and cybersecurity. The event also reflects MK Group's long-term Digital Trust strategy, focused on researching, developing, and mastering core technologies in digital identity, authentication, and cybersecurity to help governments, enterprises, and organizations build secure, trusted, and sovereign digital infrastructure for the AI era.
