Passkeys
Passkeys offer a more secure and user-friendly way to log in to websites and applications compared to traditional passwords. Unlike passwords, which require memorization and manual input, passkeys are securely stored on a device and can utilize the device’s unlock features, such as biometrics or a PIN. This eliminates the need for additional sign-in challenges, making the authentication process quicker, safer, and more user-friendly.
Passkeys can be used with any applications or websites that support this feature, allowing you to create and sign in with Windows Hello. Once a passkey is established and saved with Windows Hello, you can use your device’s biometrics or PIN for sign-in. Alternatively, a companion device like a phone or tablet can also be used for sign-in. In order to use passkeys, you would need to be licensed for any of the following Windows licenses.
