Device Registration

Passwordless authentication is a method that enables users to access their systems without using passwords. Here, the user authenticates using a device they possess or a biometric. For instance, you have a fingerprint scanner connected to the system. You can access the system by using your unique fingerprints to log in.

To use the feature, you should register for passwordless authentication.

Users must enrol their device to authenticate securely using Windows’s Hello, Mac OS Touch ID or any other FIDO2-compliant biometric device or security keys.
