Passkeys for Developers
Passkeys are cryptographic credentials that are phishing-resistant and provide fast, easy and secure passwordless authentication across devices.
Why use passkeys?
- Intuitive
Passkeys are intuitive. They create an experience that is familiar to end-users, making it feel like they're unlocking a phone.
- Secure
Passkeys are more secure than passwords: they're phishing-resistant and rely on public-key cryptography. The server only stores its public key.
- Non-Reusable
Unlike passwords, you can't reuse a passkey: they are unique per online service. When you create a passkey, it's tied to a specific domain.
- Convenient
Passkeys allow you to access an application on multiple devices using a variety of methods such as biometrics or security keys.
