(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home4/scienrds/scienceandnerds/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Source:https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2023\/05\/18\/1passwords-new-service-lets-businesses-quickly-adopt-passkeys\/<\/a><\/br> Password manager 1Password<\/a> today launched a new service, Passage by 1Password, that\u2019s designed to allow businesses to build passkey authentication into their apps and websites without having to maintain their own security infrastructure.<\/p>\n The rollout signals 1Password\u2019s expansion beyond credential management and into the customer identity access management space. But it\u2019s also on trend. Apple introduced passkey support to iOS<\/a> back in September to enable iPhones to serve as log-in tools for any compatible website or app. PayPal debuted support for passkeys on iOS<\/a> in October, while other companies such as Google<\/a>, Shopify, Kayak and DocuSign have also introduced support.<\/p>\n \u201cReplacing passwords has been predicted since the early 2000s, but now all of the major platforms \u2014 Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc. \u2014 along with 1Password and others have joined the FIDO Alliance to make the passwordless vision a reality,\u201d 1Password CEO Jeff Shiner told TechCrunch in an email interview. (The FIDO Alliance, the governing industry body for authentication, is charged with defining specifications for passkeys.) \u201cBy launching Passage by 1Password, we aim to drive adoption of this technology by enabling developers and businesses to easily implement passkey logins into their products and services.\u201d<\/p>\n To Shiner\u2019s point about the superiority of passkeys, it\u2019s true that the tech \u2014 a biometric-based login solution \u2014 is far more secure than passwords, generally speaking. As The Verge\u2019s Jess Weatherbed notes<\/a>, passkeys can replace passwords and verification systems like two-factor authentication or SMS verification entirely, providing better protection against hacking and phishing attacks as there\u2019s no fixed login or transmitted code to be stolen.<\/p>\n They\u2019re also easier to use than passwords \u2014 arguably. Research from the FIDO Alliance<\/a> found that 58% of U.S. consumers<\/a> have abandoned carts and stopped their purchases due to the difficulty managing passwords, while 1Password\u2019s own <\/span>research<\/a> suggests that 75% of people would consider using passkeys in place of passwords.<\/p>\n
