A lot of services support passkeys. Microsoft even has an option to make my account “passwordless”. Since they are more secure than passwords, will you be switching some / most of your accounts to passkeys any time soon? Interested to hear everyone’s thoughts on passkeys. 🔑
It could be your phone or computer as well, they don’t have to be in a password manager.
And that’s often going to be the default people use.
Now it’s just your face or fingerprint, both of which are easier to bypass if it’s targeted.
Well, then its still 2FA. Something you are and something you have.
Just in addition to my other reply… that was assuming it’s not a government agency.
The police can just force you to do it, but they can’t force a password.
Everyone using a passkey and biometrics on their hardware is law enforcements wet dream.
Edit: Including border security where you have less rights.
It’s just much weaker than a password and passkey / security key.
Something you are can easily be taken from you. (Edit: eg lifting fingerprints can unlock things)
Something you know is harder and would escalate a situation if forced substantially.
