Passkeys are a simple and secure alternative to passwords. They use public-key cryptography combined with biometric authentication (like fingerprint or facial recognition) or a device PIN, offering robust multi-factor authentication. This verifies your identity using multiple factors for enhanced security. Passkeys are only stored on your devices, preventing accidental sharing or theft.
To use passkeys, a website must support the technology. First, create a passkey on the website, then add it to Kaspersky Password Manager. To save a passkey, ensure you have the Kaspersky Password Manager browser extension installed.
Supported browsers:
The Passkey functionality is not supported on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1.
To view your saved passkeys, click Passkeys in the main application window.
Before deleting a passkey, ensure you have an alternative login method for that account; otherwise, you may lose access.
