Comment on replacing passwords

Apple plans to soon replace passwords in Safari and iOS with new technology, making even the best almost redundant. It's about technology of Apple which uses industry recognized standards from the FIDO Alliance.

Password

Apple was a member of this alliance during the development of these standards and worked with other technology companies and service providers from around the world to reduce the general reliance on passwords.

Connection templates without of access FIDO Alliance already supported by billions of devices and all modern ones περιήγησης στο διαδίκτυο. Αυτό το νέο πρότυπο χωρίς κωδικούς πρόσβασης παρουσιάζει μια τεράστια σειρά πλεονεκτημάτων που οι κωδικοί πρόσβασης απλά δεν μπορούν να προσφέρουν. Επιτρέπει μια πιο απρόσκοπτη είσοδο, δίνοντας τη δυνατότητα στους χρήστες να έχουν αυτόματη πρόσβαση στα διαπιστευτήριά τους σε πολλές συσκευές, καταργώντας την ανάγκη να επαναλαμβάνουν τη διαδικασία εισόδου σε κάθε λογαριασμό.

This ensures that users have a consistent experience regardless of the browser or operating system they use to sign in. The user experience couldn't be simpler either, as it allows login via biometrics (opens new ) or PIN on the device just like users access their devices.

Jake Moore, Cyber ​​ConsultantESET's website states:

"Apple's announcement to phase out passwords follows the line of similar statements by other tech giants like Google or services like PayPal. Statistics show that around 80% of all successful company breaches are based on stolen, reused and very weak passwords.

The most successful spam campaigns worldwide are fake iCloud emails, where users would click on links to 'confirm their data' or 'check for potential security risks' and enter their login information on fake websites."

“Nearly 60 years after their introduction to the IT world, it's time to put on modern methods identity. The biggest advantage for both users and administrators is that this technology is already available on the user's smartphone.”

“However, we should not get too excited about the idea that from tomorrow we will have a world without passwords. It may take another decade for the vast majority of services and users to adapt, and in some cases, such as in production environments or legacy systems, it may not even be possible to replace password-based logins.”

Although the press releases will be from very select to rarely, I said to go ... because sometimes the authors are hiding.
