Microsoft offers passwordless sign-ons

In an effort to strengthen security for Microsoft users, the company is now rolling out a way to access Microsoft accounts such as Microsoft 365, Teams, Outlook, OneDrive, and Family Safety without passwords. The feature is available after linking users' accounts to an authenticator app and turning on the Passwordless Account setting under Advanced Security Options-Additional Security Options. They can use Microsoft Authenticator, Windows Hello, a security key, or a verification code sent via SMS or Email. The goal is to make it more difficult for malicious actors to access accounts by guessing users’ passwords, which are often insecure. Too many use easy-to-remember names across multiple accounts. https://thehackernews.com/2021/09/you-can-now-sign-in-to-you-microsoft.html
