Passkeys, Cross-Account Protection and new ways we're protecting your accounts
Google News, Thursday, May 2nd, 2024
For World Password Day, we're sharing updates to passkeys across our products and sharing more ways we're keeping people safe online.
Passwords are often at the core of today's major cybersecurity issues, which is why we've continued to create new authentication technology over the years. In 2022, for World Password Day, we launched passkeys. Today, we're proud to announce that they have since been used to authenticate users more than 1 billion times across over 400 million Google Accounts.
We're also excited to announce the expansion of our Cross-Account Protection program and new updates to passkeys.
