- Google has enhanced its Advanced Protection Program for high-risk Google accounts, allowing users to set it up with a single passkey using biometric authentication on Pixel or iPhone devices.
- The program is designed for individuals at risk of targeted online attacks, such as political campaign workers or journalists with sensitive information.
- Previously, two physical security keys were required to activate the program, but now users can log in with just a passkey, enhancing security and ease of access.
- Users can enroll in the Advanced Protection Program by visiting Google’s designated page and following the setup instructions, which include setting up recovery methods like phone numbers and email addresses.
- Passkeys, based on WebAuthn technology, can replace traditional passwords and be used across multiple devices, with support from services like Apple’s and Google’s password vaults, as well as password managers like 1Password and Dashlane.
