But instead of your master password being kept securely in your head, your master password is now in the hands of Google or Apple or Microsoft. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 15 child comments replies: [–] blobjim@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago* (14 children) KeePassXC just today released support for storing passkeys in your own keepass database file. And they're not just "glorified passwords". They're private keys that use challenge-response authentication so they're never actually sent over the network. Harder to compromise. Using passkeys with some kind of personal database is ultimately an objective improvement over hodge podge username and password mechanisms, so they're only going to continue being adopted further. The only case they don't really work for is when you want to log in to a computer that doesn't have access to your passkeys. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 14 child comments replies: [+] oregoncom@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago (13 children) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 13 child comments replies: [–] hai@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago (12 children) KeePass(XC) is open-source. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 12 child comments replies: [+] oregoncom@hexbear.net 1 point 2 years ago (11 children) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 11 child comments replies: [–] blobjim@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago (8 children) You don't actually use your brain lmao.
