Try It Out: What is a Passkey
What is a passkey?
• Passkeys are encrypted digital keys that allow you to log in to MyChart with your fingerprint, face, or screen lock.
Why should I use a passkey?
• Passkeys are a faster, more secure alternative to passwords that you do not need to remember. Passkeys can also
allow you to skip two-step verification.
Where can I use my passkeys?
• You can use passkeys on any device where you have access to your password manager.
Passkeys are easier to use than passwords, and they are more resistant to phishing, credential stuffing, and password spray
attacks. Passwords still exist as a backup, but patients with passkeys can log in without using their MyChart passwords.
However, passkeys are restricted to specific domains, so patients cannot use the same passkey across different affiliate sites
