Authentication Tools for Secure Sign In - Google Safety Center (2024)

Simple and secure sign in, without passwords

Passkeys offer the simplest, most secure sign in using your device’s screen lock, so signing in is as easy as glancing at your phone or scanning your fingerprint. Passkeys are an industry standard that work across all your devices and platforms.

Effortless sign in across all your devices

Passkeys don't need to be remembered or typed. Instead, you use your fingerprint, face scan, PIN, or other screen lock to sign in- twice as fast as using a password. Because passkeys are stored in your Google Account, they’re available across all your synced devices.

Next-generation account security

Based on FIDO Alliance and W3C standards, passkeys leverage the same public key cryptographic protocols that underpin physical security keys, making them resistant to phishing, credential stuffing, and other remote attacks.

The safer way to sign in to your favorite apps and services

You deserve both speed and security when signing in to all your online accounts. You can more safely and easily sign in to thousands of apps and websites knowing that your sign-in information is kept private, safe, and secure with your Google Account.

Safely sign in or sign up anywhere with just a tap

By signing up and in with Sign in with Google, you're safe from bad actors stealing your passwords for third-party apps and services. Even if an app or service has a security incident, Sign in with Google continues to protect you by uniquely verifying each login.

More control over your accounts and connections

Manage how you use Sign in with Google, linked accounts, and other third-party connections with your Google Account. You can view, update, and manage what data you’re choosing to share all in one place, keeping you organized and in control.

Strong passwords help keep you safe

Choosing strong, unique passwords for your online accounts is an important step in keeping your personal information private. However, the majority of people say they use the same weak password across multiple sites, increasing the vulnerability of their accounts.

Google’s Password Manager helps you manage your passwords and passkeys

Built into Chrome and Android, Google’s Password Manager securely suggests, saves, and fills in passwords for all of your online accounts. Passkeys work alongside passwords and are conveniently managed all in the same place.

Automatic Password Alerts help keep your passwords safe

Every day, new data breaches publicly expose millions of usernames and passwords. Google monitors for compromised passwords, so if any of your saved passwords have been found to be involved in a data breach, we’ll automatically alert you.
