Breaking Tech News: NXT-ID (NASDAQ: NXTD) Joins FIDO Alliance as a Sponsor Member

SHELTON, Conn. - November 5, 2014 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NXT-ID, Inc., (NASDAQ: NXTD), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce, is pleased to announce that it has joined the FIDO Alliance as a Sponsor member.

The FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) Alliance (http://www.fidoalliance.org/) is an industry consortium revolutionizing online authentication with the first standards for strong authentication. FIDO Alliance members commit to share technology and collaborate to deliver open specifications for universal strong authentication that enable FIDO-compliant authentication methods to be interoperable, more secure and private, and easier-to-use.

FIDO specifications will support a full range of authentication technologies, including biometrics such as fingerprint, eye and iris scanners, voice and facial recognition, as well as further enabling existing solutions and communications standards, such as Trusted Platform Modules (TPM), USB Security Tokens, embedded Secure Elements (eSE), Smart Cards, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and Near Field Communication (NFC). The open specifications are being designed to be extensible and to accommodate future innovation, as well as protect existing investments. FIDO specifications allow the interaction of technologies within an interoperable infrastructure, enabling authentication choice to meet the distinct needs of users and organizations.

"Nxt-ID is very enthusiastic about joining FIDO Alliance and contributing to the future of online authentication with our core competencies in biometrics and encryption," said Gino Pereira, CEO of Nxt-ID, Inc. "Security does not have to be inconvenient, and this is the cornerstone upon which NXT-ID and Wocket™ are founded."

Wocket™ is a smart wallet, the next evolution in smart devices, following the smart phone and smart watch. Wocket is a next generation smart wallet designed to protect your identity and replace all the cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required.
