The initial data suggests that users are transitioning to passkeys with relative ease. According to password manager Dashlane’s research, 92% of passkey creation requests are successful, compared to 54% for traditional password creation requests. The FIDO Alliance, the governing body for passkey technological standards, reports that 57% of US consumers express interest in using passkeys to secure their accounts.
In the enterprise realm, change is underway as well. Identity management firm Okta has partnered with security key maker Yubico to supply pre-registered passkeys to Okta subscribers, making passwordless logins more accessible to organizations. Other password managers, like Bitwarden, have introduced tools for creating passkeys for enterprise apps.
These efforts aim to make the switch to passkeys as seamless as possible, dismantling barriers to their adoption. However, challenges persist, particularly in terms of compatibility.
