Essentially, passwordless authentication uses an encrypted key on a device &#8212; your phone, for example &#8212; to log you into an account. By using this method, it is far less likely that your accounts will be hacked by malicious users. On top of that, you won&#8217;t have to bother typing lengthy passwords to log into your accounts. Instead, you simply OK the login attempt on your phone, and &#8212; voil\u00e0! &#8212; you&#8217;re in.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/passkeys-what-are-they-and-how-to-get-started\/\" rel=\"follow\">What are passkeys? Experience the life-changing magic of going passwordless<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Passwordless authentication avoids the usual hacking methods of traditional authentication, such as brute force, credential stuffing, phishing, keylogging, and man-in-the-middle attacks.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Google has made the process of creating a passkey (which helps to enable a fully passwordless experience for your account) simple. Let me show you how it&#8217;s done and why you should do it.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that this setup only works to secure your Google account. This is the new world order for how you verify your login. It is not a way to create passkeys for other, third-party accounts.<\/p>\n<h2>How to create a new passkey for Google<\/h2>\n<p><strong>What you&#8217;ll need: <\/strong>To make this work, you&#8217;ll only need a valid Google account and a web browser (I would recommend using Chrome).
