Microsoft has introduced passkey support for all consumer accounts, eliminating the need for passwords.

Users can create passkeys using biometric options or PINs, enhancing ease of access on Windows, Android, and iOS.

The technology not only adds convenience but also increases security, reducing vulnerability to cyber attacks.

Cross-device backup for passkeys is supported, ensuring user access is seamless and secure across platforms.

Tech giants like Apple and Google are also adopting passkey technology in their ecosystems.

Microsoft is set to enable passkey sign-ins for mobile app versions shortly, further advancing passwordless authentication.
