On the same day that Apple was announcing the newest software features built into this year’s major operating system updates, we learned about the mother of all password leaks. A 100GB text file containing 8.4 billion passwords collected from various data breaches and leaks found its way online -- a stark reminder that hackers continue to hunt vulnerabilities that allow them to acquire login credentials to then steal money and/or information from internet users.
Every major technology company is working to increase user security and prevent hacks, and these initiatives include “killing” the password. Apple is among the tech companies working on better login methods, and the company plans to try out its new Passkeys in iCloud Keychain on iOS 15 and macOS Monterey.
