Google expands passkey support to more devices with new partners in tow\u060c<\/p>\n

Logging into Internet accounts can be quite a challenge, especially when you have to keep track of multiple passwords. That's why Passkeys, the sign-in method touted as the more secure alternative to passwords, have become Google's preferred authentication method for personal accounts.<\/div>\n

Last year, Google<\/a> made a concerted effort to encourage more people to use passkeys, going so far as to work with industry partners to ensure that passkeys were easily accessible across various websites and apps. . However, there is still work to be done.<\/p>\n

As part of the December Pixel Feature Drop, Google introduced a new feature to Google Password Manager, allowing users to easily identify which of their accounts support passkeys and upgrade them with just a few clicks. This feature is currently available on the Pixel 5a and later as well as the Pixel tablet, and there are plans to expand its availability to other platforms in the near future.<\/div>\n

Google Password Manager and the Passkey Upgrade experience on Pixels<\/span><\/p>\n

However, in a blog post today<\/a>, Google announced that it has established partnerships with several companies, such as Adobe, Best Buy, DocuSign, eBay, Kayak, Money Forward, Nintendo, PayPal, Uber and Yahoo! Japan, to improve the passkey update process for more users. For users already registered with one of the first launch partners, Google Password Manager for Pixel will help locate the precise location on the website or app<\/a> where users can easily switch to a password, eliminating the need for a manual search in the account. settings.<\/div>\n

Passwords provide an extra layer of security because they are unique to each account, making them more resistant to phishing attacks than traditional passwords. They are also more user-friendly since users do not need to remember a complicated password and can instead have the option to log in using their fingerprint, facial recognition or PIN. With the growing adoption of passwords by websites and apps, it appears they are poised to become the standard for online authentication.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
