HOW 97: Passkeys and Your Microsoft Account - How to Use Passkeys
Manage episode 425968768 series 3372211
The passwords we use to protect our online accounts are insecure and easily compromised. For this reason, Microsoft has been working with industry partners for decades to create and standardize new ways to reduce our reliance on passwords and improve the security of our accounts and the private data they contain. The ultimate goal is to eliminate passwords all-together: In this passwordless world, we can authenticate–prove who we are–using methods that are more secure and easier than typing a password.
