Hate #passwords? Use #passkeys!
This new and easy way to secure your accounts removes the need for passwords by authenticating you with your device. Passkeys also provide a higher protection against #phishing attacks.
Here’s how to get started with #passkeys on #ProtonPass #Android, #iOS and browser extension. https://proton.me/blog/what-is-a-passkey
@protonprivacy I know that this probably is a newbie question, but why it's a passkey more secure than a very long randomly generated password?
Despite the fact that the private passkey is not actually located on the server...
@ander_dapo Hi there, passkeys are phishing resistant as they only work on the originating website. You can't accidentally type your credentials into a fake website.
Passkeys are also strong by default, rather than relying on user generated password + setting up 2FA.
And as you mentioned, only the public key is stored on a services website.
