Passkeys And Disaster Planning

👍 Passkeys are new, convenient, and secure. I'll review how they affect your disaster planning. (Not very much.)

👍 Passkeys offer easier and more secure authentication compared to passwords. Each device has a unique passkey, requiring device-specific authentication like a PIN or biometrics. If a device is lost, the passkey can be cancelled. In emergency situations, access can be granted through other methods like recovery emails or phone numbers, making it convenient for trusted individuals like family members to access your accounts.
