[QUOTE="Nik, post: 336021, member: 1"] [HEADING=1]What is a passkey?[/HEADING] Passkeys are a secure replacement for passwords and/or second factor authentication. They take many forms ranging from physical devices (e.g. [URL='https://www.yubico.com/gb/store/']Yubikeys[/URL]) to biometric authentication built in to your phone or computer (Windows Hello/fingerprint, FaceID in Macs and iPhones). Some types of passkeys can even be synced across all of your devices, for example I can setup a passkey using my fingerprint on my Windows Laptop which is then synchronised with my Android Phone and authenticated using Face Identification. Or you may have a password manager such as 1Password, Dashlane, [URL='https://bitwarden.com/']Bitwarden[/URL] or [URL='https://proton.me/pass']Proton Pass[/URL] which synchronise your passkeys across different browsers and devices. They are extremely secure, extremely easy to set up and extremely easy to use. [HEADING=1]What does it do?[/HEADING] Simply put, allows you to login to CCF without keying in a password (or a username or email ID). [HEADING=1]When can I start using it?[/HEADING] Soon as we update our core platform software the options to login/enable passkeys will be rolled out to most. [HEADING=1][/HEADING] [/QUOTE]
