Passkeys Raise the Bar. Here’s Where Attackers Can Still Get In.

Passkeys enhance authentication security but leave gaps during enrollment, account recovery, endpoint access, and alternative authentication flows. Organizations must adopt comprehensive identity strategies to protect the entire account lifecycle against attackers exploiting these weaknesses.

Why it matters: Security practitioners need to evaluate passkey deployments holistically: attackers are actively targeting enrollment and recovery mechanisms, not just the authentication factor itself.
