Passkeys are a modern alternative to passwords, where the user's device performs the authentication, usually requiring some form of user verification (biometric identification, PIN). Passkeys are built on top of WebAuthn specification, which is based on public-key cryptography. Keypairs are created for each website, and the public key is sent to the server, while the private key is securely stored on the device. This makes passkeys: |

Passwords have lousy security properties, and if you try to use them securely (long, complicated, and different for every site), they often have horrible usability as well. Over the decades, the industry has slowly tried to shore up passwords' security with multi-factor authentication (e.g. one-time codes via SMS, ToTP authenticators, etc) and usability improvements (e.g.... |

Part 3 is the last part in this short cycle. Here I'll explain all the details around Time-based One-Time Password algorithm. I'll finish up by also elaborating on things common to both, HMAC-Based One-Time Password algorithm: QR Codes used to easily transfer secrets from the server to the Authenticator app Base32 algorithm - used to store non-printable secret in a URI (effectively stored by the QR Codes mentioned above). TOTP One way to avoid the problems with lack of feedback between server and the app... |
