Sign In Quickly and Securely With Passkeys
Google, Thursday, October 8th, 2026
For Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Google encourages users to replace passwords with phishing-resistant passkeys on their Google Account.
Google is using Cybersecurity Awareness Month to promote passkeys for signing in to apps and sites.
Passkeys let users sign in with a fingerprint, face scan or device PIN, and biometric data stays on the device rather than being shared with Google.
Unlike passwords, passkeys are designed to resist common attacks such as phishing, and users can create one for their Google Account at g.co/passkeys.
