Nok Nok Labs, a company founded to transform online authentication for modern computing announced today a partnership with Lenovo, the world's largest PC vendor. Lenovo is working with Nok Nok Labs to develop a joint solution to the ongoing problems created by the reliance on weak or complex passwords. The companies will deliver a FIDO-ready solution to the market in early 2014 that meets the dual user demands of ease of use and increased security.

Launched in February 2013, the FIDO Alliance is developing a new industry open standard to address the lack of interoperability of existing authentication solutions and the problems users face with multiple usernames and passwords. This new open standard for strong authentication will enable websites and cloud applications to interface with a wide variety of existing and future FIDO-enabled devices and technologies.
