The rise of artificial intelligence not only makes our lives easier, but also carries new risks in digital security. Security experts, including SYMANTEC, Cofense and Hoghunt, warn that artificial intelligence attack attacks have become increasingly developed and able to overcome the most professional security systems.
Although Google says more than 99 % of hunting and other harmful emails are successfully filtered, millions of harmful content are still undergoing defense lines. In addition, the attacks by artificial intelligence spread quickly and target more and more users. According to a recent report on Cofense, the exact method of “reinforced” is able to play usual safety steps, such as CAPTCA, and therefore more likely to obtain user authentication data.
In response to these threats, Google decided to submit an authentication on the Passkey key instead of passwords. Passkey (English: Eveness key) is a modern definition solution that depends on encryption that is associated with the user and biometric data such as fingerprints or face recognition.
According to the official Google briefing, users will be directed to the Passkey key from 2024 and recommends them all Gmail accounts and Google account.
Advantages of using Keykey:
- It is not necessary to remember or enter a password
- Authentication can be made using biometric data (fingerprints, face recognition) or pin
- Data cannot be transferred or copied, and thus significantly reduce hunting opportunities
- With one click you can log in safe on multiple devices
Google’s goal is to replace the entire Passkey password. At the same time, users can decide whether they will stay in old methods at the present time, but the company encourages the transition to the new system by all means.
So it is important for Gmail users to turn into this safest new solution as soon as possible, especially in light of increasing attacks based on artificial intelligence.
