With Passkeys there’s a subtle difference to [[FIDO 2.0]] as it surrounds a multi-device Fast Identity Authentication or FIDO authentication. It uses a notification, which is generally sent to an individual’s smartphone during a log-in process and lets them authenticate their credentials.

as the name suggests, it requires dual verification of an account before someone can sign-in

Context

With Passkeys there’s a subtle difference to FIDO 2.0 as it surrounds a multi-device Fast Identity Authentication or FIDO authentication. It uses a notification, which is generally sent to an individual’s smartphone during a log-in process and lets them authenticate their credentials. Often, this is done using a PIN or biometric process and thereby removes the need for conventional letter and number combination passwords.

Acceptance

Looks like more people are using passkeys than expected.[1]
1Password experienced a particular spike in October 2023, correlating with big companies like Amazon and WhatsApp rolling out their support for passkeys during this month, with over 70,000 created between October 16-22 alone.
