How are passkeys different from passwords?

Passkeys are a form of "passwordless authentication," which means you prove your identity without a password when you log in to a website or app.

For the person logging in with a passkey, the process is simple. In some cases, you’ll use your fingerprint or facial recognition the same way you do when unlocking your phone. If you’ve saved a passkey in Dashlane, you’ll see a pop-up asking you to confirm that you want to log in to the site. After confirming, you’ll be logged in automatically.

But passkeys are also far more secure than the best passwords. Passkeys are a phishing-resistant way to log in. Unlike passwords, passkeys can't be stolen or guessed. Passkeys are always unique and strong and don’t require storing private information on servers.
