Passkeys?

• cpach 3y ago
  How? AFAIK a passkey is just a replacement for a password. If my passkey tells you I can authenticate as john.doe@gmail.com, how does that help with establishing trust and identity?

    Maybe combined with biometrics like FaceID?

      In Sweden we have the proprietary BankID system, which is linked to one’s ‘personnummer’. (The personnummer is similar to SSN and compulsory for all citizens.) https://www.bankid.com/en/foretag/secure-digital-identification https://www.bankid.com/en/foretag/secure-digital-identificat... I think India has something similar? Not sure if open source developers would be so keen on introducing requirements like that into the development process. Some developers want to keep a low profile and not reveal to much about their AFK identity. And nearly all tech for doing stuff like this is proprietary.
