Microsoft will abandon passwords in favor of passkeys
Microsoft will begin implementing passkeys when registering new users. Passwords will gradually become a thing of the past. This new approach promises a significant boost in security. A passkey is a new and secure method for logging into online services, writes https://xrust.ru/. It eliminates the need for complex-to-remember passwords. Think about all those complicated combinations with various symbols you’ve had to come up with. Passkey-based logins simply use your biometric data for verification — data that is much harder to steal since the authentication process happens on your device. Among the additional advantages, using a passkey significantly speeds up the login process compared to traditional passwords. You enter your login, then type your password, and then check what was sent to your phone. This is undoubtedly a major step toward completely abandoning passwords, as the current method is highly susceptible to data breaches, which can be especially problematic if passwords are not encrypted. Moving away from the era of passwords means we no longer need to worry about complex (and often annoying) practices, such as updating passwords every few months or resetting forgotten passwords for accounts that have been inactive.
