Passwordless Future : Google ‘Passkeys’

Google has announced the rollout of ‘Passkeys,’ which it describes as “the easiest and most secure way to sign-in to apps and websites” and a major step toward a “passwordless future.”

Working Toward A Passwordless Future : FIDO & Passkeys

Passkeys comes out of the work that Google’s been doing with the FIDO Alliance, an open industry association, formed in February 2013, to develop and promote authentication standards to "help reduce the world’s over-reliance on passwords". 'FIDO' (Fast IDentity Online) sign-in credentials refer to a set of open and scalable authentication standards that aim to reduce reliance on passwords and enhance the security of online services.
