Yubikey vs Passkeys
Since Yuibkeys seem inherently more secure, shouldn't we continue to use those over the upcoming "passkeys"? It's confusing to me how both coexist and whether one might work where the other wouldn't....
I also have a question about this topic.
Namely, I just enabled 2FA with Security Keys on a website. Now I could also create a passkey from 1Password instead of a security key to authenticate myself like with a security key.
Passkeys are intended for authentication with the passkey only and not with a username or any other 2FA means.
So my question, couldn't you then also use a security key for this login instead of a passkey. So that you can use the security key to log in without username etc.?
Doesn't a security key do exactly the same as a passkey, only a passkey is digital and a security key is physical?
This would then mean that this type of authentication with a passkey could also be realized with a Yubikey, for example, right?
