The end of third-party cookies hasn't stopped the push to make browsers an active player in federated authentication. Instead of acting as a passive bystander, the browser is stepping into a new role, one that reshapes how users experience authentication across web services. 

This session gets straight to what’s happening today in the standardization process and how browsers are testing out capabilities before the standards are finalized. What new capabilities are emerging? How do identity wallets fit into this evolving model? And what does all of this mean for developers, businesses, and end users?

We'll explore the technical shifts, the privacy challenges, and the practical realities of browser-mediated authentication. Whether you've been tracking this space for years or are just now tuning in, you'll leave with a clear understanding of what’s happening now and what’s coming next. Bring your popcorn.
