The adoption of passkeys as an authentication method is gaining momentum across various services. Major tech players like Apple, Google, and Microsoft have embraced this trend, alongside services like WhatsApp and GitHub. Passkeys offer heightened security, leveraging a zero-knowledge architecture where neither the user nor anyone else knows the actual passkey. Authentication relies on the user’s device lock method, such as fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN, making passkeys both secure and convenient for users.
