My passkeys are stored in keypass, which I share between multiple devices. Phone, home servers, desktop pc and a flashdrive that stays in my car.
Obviously the flash drive needs to be manually updated but the other devices use syncthing to keep everything up to date.
I get there are some people that have concerns over such a configuration but I’m happy bopping away knowing that if my phone dies, I’ve still got access to accounts / can easily be back up and running on a fresh device.
Those are awfully dangerous on their own these days.
As soon as a poorly salted hash leaks or gasp, a hash with no salt, it’s super easy to reverse those passwords now.
2FA severely reduces the danger of rainbow tables and keyloggers. The only real worry with 2FA is login replacement and interception. and passkey solves that, allbeit at the cost of complexity.
baby steps, start with getting them secure, then when most are ready start dropping the password
iron out the kinks, give all apps a chance to implement
if you only ever login with passkey and it asks you for 2fa, you can scrutinize the page more
You can tell just from the response on this post people aren’t all ready for passkey yet, but you can’t wait fo them to decide they’re ready before you start.
What happens to the account access if the passkey-registered device dies?

You can have more than one passkey.
You can still use password + 2fa
You can use google oauth.
You can use a YUBI key
You should probably have a primary and secondary auth for every site.
Or just a password that is known to you and only you.

What’s the point of a passkey if you can still use a password
