Dario supported Swisscom as a Subject Matter Expert in Authentication Standards, contributing to the development of a new B2B security service focused on phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication using FIDO standards and passkeys.
His work combined product strategy, authentication expertise, and hands-on product development support. He worked closely with the business sponsor to shape the product narrative, define the customer value proposition, and translate the capabilities of modern passwordless authentication into a compelling B2B offering.
As an authentication specialist, Dario provided knowledge transfer and ongoing advisory support to Swisscom teams, covering passkeys, FIDO standards, industry best practices, and the practical trade-offs involved in deploying these technologies. He also helped translate these concepts into concrete product requirements and determine how new capabilities could fit within Swisscom’s existing product architecture.
Dario additionally collaborated with several implementation teams on proof-of-concept activities, helping validate technical feasibility and key design decisions before further investment.
Throughout the engagement, he acted as an external sparring partner and subject matter expert, bringing experience from the wider identity and authentication ecosystem as well as access to an international industry network. This helped the team challenge assumptions, reduce uncertainty around important product and technology decisions, and accelerate the development of the new security offering.
