Or in the more official name Fido Multi-device credentials. Basically this is a webauthn login, but the private key is distributed among all the devices in a persons Google, Microsoft and iCloud account. If a person wants to login in on a device not in the account a QR code should be scanned after which the computers do some cryptographic magic via Bluetooth. And the new device also has the private key. This method is supposed to be a lot safer and more convenient than the usual passwords. As far as I know this system is open. My wish is that Ubuntu and Linux in general also will support this Passkeys thing. Regards, Martijn.
