Wordfence 9 introduces free passkey support, letting WordPress users log in without passwords and reducing authentication friction.
Wordfence announced that version 9 of its WordPress security plugin introduces passkeys. The feature removes the need for users to remember or copy passwords from a manager. Wordfence is offering the passkey capability for free.
Google enabled direct password and passkey transfers between Android password managers, initiated from the destination app without unencrypted file exports.
Android now supports moving passwords and passkeys directly between password managers without exporting them to a file, replacing the previous unencrypted-export workflow. The transfer is initiated in the receiving app, which hands off to Android to detect installed managers and request authorization in the source app. The feature works today with Google Password Manager, 1Password, Bitwarden, and Dashlane, with more partners promised but unnamed. Google says data moves between apps in seconds and calls the handoff secure, without detailing the protections.
