Over 2 billion devices support some form of biometric unlock (Face ID, Touch ID, etc), making that by far the most common way people protect access to their devices.
The exact same capability, applied to authentication (login) for apps, is called Passkeys. But yet, despite the popularity of biometric device unlock, and the massive problems of passwords -- phishing, cracking, forgetting -- and even SMS texts or TOTP codes for 2FA, for some reason, Passkeys have not yet taken off.
It's well past time for Passkeys to have taken off. We desperately need a broad conversation about what's holding them back and what we can do to upgrade the web to using Passkeys.
In this talk, we'll explore the ins and outs of using Passkeys, including (most importantly!) how to make your users understand and love them!
