So even if a user gets tricked and goes to a spoofed site, which happens all the time through phishing attacks, their device will actually tell them, no, you cannot sign in here.
And so there's no burden on the user to have to identify a phishing attack.
And that's really the beauty of PassKeys is that it is phishing resistant and super easy to use.
Yes, and I think that's important in the context of what Andrew was just speaking about in terms of
MFA and phishing-resistant authentication, and, you know, it's a triangle and a square, and is one thing the same?
And there are cases where, you know, requirements might necessitate multiple factors
And then there are cases where phishing resistance is just needed regardless of factors.
And there still could be factors involved, but the phishing resistance is the key part of that.
And I think sometimes, to answer your question, terminology sometimes can be
a little bit can be tricky, right, when it comes to these kinds of things.
But it's pretty simple, actually.
A synced passkey is a passkey that you can access across devices through a secure credential manager.
Like you mentioned,
Before, there's password managers out there, that's what historically we would call them, but it could be like iCloud Keychain, Google Passwords, 1Password, Dashlane are all secure credential managers by which you could access your passkey across your devices.
A device-bound passkey is a pretty on-the-nose name because the passkey is bound to a particular device, which could be a hardware security key, for example, or another external form factor piece of hardware.
It could actually be an app on a phone as well.
But what that means is your passkey is bound to that device.
You can actually use that device to sign into other devices,
But the passkey doesn't actually leave that device.
Thank you.
