Passkey
A passwordless, cryptographic way to log in securely without typing passwords.
A Passkey is a modern, passwordless login method
that uses cryptographic keys stored on your device —
like Face ID, fingerprint, or a security chip.
Instead of typing a password, your phone or computer
proves your identity using a private key
that never leaves your device.
Why it matters
- No passwords to steal or reuse
- Protects against phishing and keyloggers
- Backed by major tech companies (Apple, Google, Microsoft)
Passkeys are part of the WebAuthn standard
and are quickly becoming the safest way to sign in online.
💡 Lanzo Tip
Use passkeys instead of SMS codes wherever possible —
they’re faster, safer, and can’t be SIM-swapped 🔐
