However, recent industry announcements from the FIDO (“Fast IDentity Online”) Alliance and larger platform players like Apple, Microsoft, and Google bring hope that adoption may soon begin to ramp up. This more secure, phishing-resistant authentication method has been discussed for years, but adoption has been slow because of technical burdens on the user, limited adoption by websites, and limited interoperability of solutions across platforms (browsers, operating systems, and devices). In the coming weeks, smartphones and laptops will receive a system update that will make passwordless authentication a reality. Passwordless authentication means that users will be able to log in to a website without entering a password, with their smartphones or laptops acting as authenticators.

You may have heard the term “ passwordless authentication” or seen it in the news recently. With a passwordless future on the horizon, Dashlane is excited to introduce integrated passkey support in our password manager and unveil the first in-browser passkey solution.
