A passkey is a modern, more secure alternative to the traditional username and password login. Instead of creating a password, passkeys use biometrics or a hardware key to authenticate users.
Passkeys provide enhanced security by eliminating the risks associated with passwords, such as phishing and data breaches. Since the passkey is stored only on your device and isn’t shared across websites, attackers can’t steal it or reuse it. Additionally, passkeys can protect against phishing attempts, as your device will recognize and block login attempts on fake sites.
