Passkeys can be used to replace passwords by storing unique digital keys locally on your device. They are far less vulnerable to theft in the event of a data breach or phishing attempt, and they can connect with your device’s biometric security, such as fingerprints and face authentication. The passkey functionality in 1Password will be “based on the same secure basis” as secret keys, which are lengthy recovery codes generated by platforms as a fallback sign-in option.
