Context
Passkeys are the future of authentication. They're phishing-proof—you can't accidentally enter your passkey on a fake site because it's cryptographically bound to the real site. They sync across devices and don't require remembering anything.
Passkeys are immune to phishing attacks and credential stuffing. They can't be stolen in data breaches.
