World Password Day is no longer. The annual day to promote secure password practices has run its course, and the FIDO Alliance (whose stated mission, to be fair, is to bring the world beyond passwords) has rebranded World Password Day as World Passkey Day – an occasion to celebrate the encrypted FIDO credentials that combine data you possess (a digital key or credential) with a biometric trait (something you are, usually a face or fingerprint).
