- Microsoft is adding support for third-party passkey providers, with passkeys synced across Windows 11 devices.
- Windows Hello is also getting a redesign to simplify the process of creating and using passkeys.
- This move by Microsoft follows a similar push by Google to expand passkey support.
In a move that further solidifies the tech industry’s commitment to a passwordless future, Microsoft has announced expanded support for passkeys across its Windows 11 operating system. This announcement follows a similar move by Google last month, signaling a growing momentum behind the adoption of this more secure authentication technology.
One of the key features announced is a new plug-in model that allows third-party passkey providers to integrate directly with Windows 11. This means that users can take advantage of services from popular providers like 1Password and Bitwarden, allowing them to use the same passkeys across multiple devices, including mobile phones and PCs.
