Google, Apple and Microsoft want to say goodbye to the principle of passwords altogether. Instead, a method jointly developed by the FIDO Alliance and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is to be used. The FIDO method generates a key pair on devices that is linked to a fingerprint or other biometric factors. Logging on to a cell phone is then sufficient to access accounts on a computer.
