Google Introduces Passkeys for Faster and More Secure Logins

Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Verge

Google now offers passkeys as an alternative to passwords and two-factor authorization for signing into your account. Passkeys are a secure credential tied to the PIN or biometric authentication of your device and only exist on your device, making them even safer. To set up a passkey, you need a compatible device with a screen lock enabled and Bluetooth turned on. If you lose a device with a passkey, you can remove it from your list of passkeys or sign the device out of your account. You can also stop using passkeys altogether and go back to using passwords and two-factor authorization.
