Passkeys are an innovative approach to user authentication, designed to simplify and secure the sign-in process. This technology eliminates the reliance on traditional passwords by utilizing unique device-based authentication methods.
The authentication process is remarkably user-friendly; when logging in, a user simply uses their device's biometrics or PIN, such as Face ID or Touch ID. This action allows the device to authenticate the user's identity and grant access, merging sophistication with simplicity. This method not only enhances security by eliminating common password vulnerabilities but also significantly improves the user experience, making digital interactions more straightforward and efficient.
