Passkeys: The Future of Secure Online Authentication

You’ve heard of passkeys, right? They’re quickly becoming the go-to solution for online security because they’re a safer alternative to traditional passwords.

Passkeys use something called cryptography to keep your details secure. This makes them much harder to hack than old-fashioned passwords.

More businesses are using passkeys now – and companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft are already fully onboard. Amazon already has more than 175 million customers using passkeys to secure their accounts.

But it’s always been a hassle to transfer passkeys between different platforms. This is where the FIDO Alliance comes in. The group, which develops passkey technology, is working to make sure you can move your passkeys between different password managers easily.

The FIDO Alliance is introducing two new standards – the Credential Exchange Protocol (CXP) and Credential Exchange Format (CXF) – to make this process smoother and more secure for businesses everywhere.

This is great news, because soon you’ll be able to switch password managers without worrying about compromising on security.
