Microsoft wants to finish passwords as soon as possible

Accessing any of our devices using a password is the most common. Be it a computer or a smartphone. But, there are more and more methods that allow us to access devices, from the fingerprint sensor or facial recognition. So little by little the passwords are disappearing. That is what they also want from Microsoft. The company wants to end passwords as soon as possible.

Microsoft wants to finish passwords as soon as possible

A version of Windows 10 is currently being tested in the latest Build of which the use of the password to access the computer is disregarded. Although this system can be tested only in Windows 10 S. The idea is that you have an application installed on the phone to authorize or deny access to the computer.

In this way, thanks to the use of this tool called Authenticator it will not be necessary to use the password to access Windows 10. Also, we won't need it for logins either. So Microsoft's idea is that users gradually use fewer and fewer passwords. Although, they must first find secure systems.

The question is whether users will receive this news in a positive way. Since it depends a lot on the way in which the company implements these changes. It has to be done well. Otherwise, the only thing it will do is cause more problems. In addition, having to use the smartphone every time you have to access is not so comfortable.

Other systems such as fingerprints or facial recognition may be an option. We will have to see what Microsoft has in mind. What is clear is that the company wants to finish with the passwords as soon as possible.
