You've been using passwords forever. In fact, you've never liked them. As a user, you had no choice, and as a developer, you had no real alternatives. Until now. In this session, we will explore the evolution of digital security, highlighting the significant drawbacks of passwords, such as susceptibility to breaches, phishing, and poor user experience. I will introduce passkeys, explaining how they leverage public key cryptography to provide a more secure and user-friendly authentication method. I will also discuss the technical underpinnings of implementation.
