NEOWAVE, a French specialist in strong authentication and secure transactions, announces that its FIDO2 products meet the security requirements of FIDO2 Level 2 certification, marking a new milestone in strengthening digital identity protection. Designed and manufactured in France, NEOWAVE’s Winkeo2J FIDO2 tokens and Badgeo FIDO2 smart cards provide organizations with robust, sovereign authentication solutions aligned with the most demanding international and European security standards.​​

Sovereign FIDO2 solutions compliant with the highest security standards

In a context of rapidly intensifying cyber threats, as highlighted by the 2025 activity report and threat landscape from Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr, with a 20% increase in assisted victims and a surge in data breaches, strengthening authentication mechanisms has become a strategic priority. The rise in phishing attacks (+70%) further underscores the need for robust solutions to secure access to digital services.

Led by the FIDO Alliance, FIDO2 Level 2 certification ensures a high level of security in identity verification by confirming that the user is a real person and by protecting sensitive data within a secure, isolated environment. A Level 2 certification provides a significant increase in trust in identity verification processes, reducing the risk of account takeovers and fraudulent registrations.

Following the evaluation phase, the SGS Brightsight lab confirmed that NEOWAVE products comply with all the requirements of the FIDO2 L2 certification. These solutions address the growing needs of enterprises, public sector organizations, and regulated industries seeking reliable, sovereign cybersecurity solutions aligned with the most stringent international and European standards.
