Google and Apple Want You to Log In With Passkeys. Here’s What That Means.

The biggest tech companies want you to ditch passwords for passkeys. What’s great is that third-party password managers from Dashlane, 1Password and others now support passkeys on mobile devices as well as desktop browsers. You can set up passkeys using your device’s built-in iCloud Keychain or Google Password Manager for Android. To sign in to your Google account on a device you don’t own, enter your username then click “Use another phone or tablet" when prompted. Don’t forget about your passwords “The Achilles’ heel of current passwordless technology is that many services still rely on traditional passwords," warned Trevor Hilligoss, director of security research at cybercrime analytics firm SpyCloud.
