One stays on your device and never leaves it; the other is stored by the website. Logging in means your device signs a challenge from the site, which is useless to anyone who intercepts it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why it is safer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is nothing to phish. A fake login page cannot trick you into handing over a passkey, because the passkey only works on the real website it was made for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should you switch?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, where it is offered. Start with your email account, since it is the key to resetting everything else. Keep your password manager for sites that do not support passkeys yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big websites are quietly moving away from passwords.
