1Password is Launching the New Passkey Support
1Password recently announced that it will be rolling out passkey support to its customers early next year. This will help users log into their apps and websites without the need for any passwords. It is entirely passwordless through the authentication process, which may be daunting for a company that specializes in it.
Passkey is a passwordless login technology that is developed by the FIDO Alliance. This allows users to be able to replace traditional passwords with their device's own authentication -- this includes a phone password or Face ID. This essentially offers greater security and protection as there isn't a password to obtain or accidentally give out. 1Password calls its version of the technology 'Universal Sign On.'
