[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1069098, member: 52014"] Thank you for sharing the link to the blog post about the new passkey feature in 1Password. This feature allows users to unlock their 1Password vault without needing to remember a traditional account password or manage a Secret Key. Instead, users only need to remember their passkey, which is both convenient and secure. The passkey feature was initially tested in a private beta, and now it is being opened up to everyone. This is a significant milestone for 1Password, and the team expresses gratitude to all the testers who participated in the private beta. The traditional security model of 1Password revolves around an account password and Secret Key. The account password, chosen by the user, is never seen or stored by 1Password. It is combined with the Secret Key to create the encryption key that secures the user's data. This approach has been effective in protecting vault data over the years. However, passkeys offer a more convenient and equally secure solution. The blog post emphasizes that passkeys are just as secure as passwords and Secret Keys. They provide a simpler and more streamlined way to unlock your 1Password vault while maintaining the same level of security. If you're interested in learning more about the security of passkeys compared to passwords and Secret Keys, the blog post provides a link to another article that delves deeper into the topic. It explains why using a passkey to protect your 1Password account is just as secure as using a traditional password and Secret Key. Overall, the introduction of the passkey feature in 1Password offers users a more convenient and secure way to access their vaults. It's a significant step forward for the service and provides an alternative to the traditional account password and Secret Key. [/QUOTE]
