However, we argue FIDO2 has broader potential applications. In this paper, we introduce EAP-FIDO, a novel Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) method for use in IEEE 802.1X-protected networks. This allows organisations with WPA2/3-Enterprise wireless networks or MACSec-enabled wired networks to leverage FIDO2’s passwordless authentication in compliance with existing standards. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive security and performance analysis to support the feasibility of this approachengAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 España© 2025 The Authors.
