Passkeys: The beginning of the end of the password
The paragraph in the section, "What are passkeys?" tells me that they: are new, are easier, let me use biometrics, and are resistant to attacks. But, it doesn't tell me what passkeys actually are.Compare passkeys to traditional authentication factors. What's a password? A secret word or phrase that only you know. What are biometrics? Parts of your body that can help uniquely identify you, like your fingerprint or retina. What are hardware tokens? They are physical devices that give you codes that verify that the person logging in has the device on their person.What are passkeys?Until they develop a way to explain what passkeys really are, I question how quickly they will be adopted.
