What's Coming: Passkey Support
We're excited to share that Passkey support is coming to AliasVault! This is a major step forward in making digital identity management even more secure and user-friendly.
Current Progress
In our development branch, the browser extension has already implemented the base WebAuthn specification, which means:
- Create Passkeys: Generate secure passkeys directly in your browser
- Secure Storage: Store passkeys safely in your vault with end-to-end encryption
- Seamless Login: Use your passkeys to authenticate across supported services
Timeline
In the next weeks we'll be continuing work focusing on:
- Browser extension finalization: Completing the remaining Passkey browser extension features
- Mobile app integration: Adding Passkey support to mobile applications
- Cross-platform compatibility: Ensuring seamless experience across all devices
This represents a significant leap forward in passwordless authentication, making AliasVault even more powerful for managing your digital identity securely.
