My friend, Bret Arsenault, our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) here at Microsoft likes to say, “Hackers don’t break in, they log in.” That has stuck with me ever since I first heard him say it because it’s so true. Use the Microsoft Authenticator app, Windows Hello, a security key, or a verification code sent to your phone or email to sign in to your favorite apps and services, such as Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft OneDrive, Microsoft Family Safety, and more. In March 2021, we announced that passwordless sign in was generally available for commercial users, bringing the feature to enterprise organizations around the world.īeginning today, you can now completely remove the password from your Microsoft account. In a recent Microsoft Twitter poll, one in five people reported they would rather accidentally “reply all”-which can be monumentally embarrassing-than reset a password.įor the past couple of years, we’ve been saying that the future is passwordless, and today I am excited to announce the next step in that vision. We are expected to create complex and unique passwords, remember them, and change them frequently, but nobody likes doing that either. Yet for years they’ve been the most important layer of security for everything in our digital lives-from email to bank accounts, shopping carts to video games.
