Overview
FIDO Alliance’s credential exchange specifications define a standard format for transferring all types of credentials in a credential manager including passwords, passkeys and more in a manner that is secure by default.
The specifications, Credential Exchange Protocol and the Credential Exchange Format, are currently in early review draft. Feedback on the Credential Exchange Specs can be found here.
