ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. For this reason, FIDO claims that passkeys are much safer and phishing resistant.ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. The former will be stored in servers, and the latter will be encrypted and stored on the user's nominated device only. For every account, there will be two sets of keys, one public and one private. Taking the place of passwords are passkeys.
If your device lacks such biometric technology, like a PC, then you can use an external security key via a USB reader instead. It lets sites and services allow users to authenticate their log in with one of their smart devices, using whatever security they have to lock that device, such biometric data like fingerprint or facial recognition, or a pin code. The FIDO Alliance, in working with the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), developed the Web Authentication API, or WebAuthn, as part of the FIDO2 specifications. v founder Anders Åberg added: “In this race towards secure online experiences with the power of FIDO2 to mitigate common attack vectors, Bitwarden and v will make passwordless more accessible for everyone.”
Bitwarden CEO Michael Crandell said: “v lets developers and companies accelerate passwordless innovation by simplifying development efforts into a single API.”
