Curious About Passkeys

A passkey is a new way to sign in to an account that works completely without passwords. By using the security capabilities of your devices like Touch ID and Face ID, passkeys are way more secure and easier to use than both passwords and all current 2-factor authentication (2FA) methods.

I’ve been considering switching some of my accounts to passkeys but I didn’t understand how they work. If you’re curious like I was there’s a website where you can set up a demo account to see how passkeys work.

After going through the demo I now understand how it works. It’s slick!
