Passkeys provide a secure and easier way to sign in to the Paxos Dashboard. With passkeys, there are no passwords to remember and no two-factor authentication. Under the covers, when you add a passkey you are creating cryptographic key pairs for Paxos Dashboard: one key is stored on the Paxos server and the other is stored in your password manager or on your device. When you sign in with a passkey, the Paxos server ensures you are using the correct passkey. There are numerous ways to use passkeys; however, we recommend using a password manager that can sync across multiple devices for the most portable experience.

Lost Access to Your Passkey?

If you lose access to the device or password manager holding your passkey, contact your Organization Administrator to reset it. Once reset, you can sign in with a one-time email code and register a new passkey.
Passkey reset is not available for SSO-managed members. If your organization uses SSO, contact your IT organization for help regaining access.
We recommend saving and using passkeys with the following password managers in conjunction with a compatible browser. Third-party password managers may require you to create an account and install additional browser plugins/extensions. Check with your IT organization if you have any questions about password managers. If you can’t use any of the recommended password managers, use a password manager that allows for passkey synchronization across devices.
Before You BeginBefore creating a passkey, check with your IT organization and the user documentation for your particular device for policies, procedures, hardware requirements and restrictions.

​
System Time Requirements

Passkey authentication requires your device’s system time to be accurate. If your system time is more than 30 seconds off from the actual current time, authentication may fail.
Keep Your System Time SynchronizedTo ensure reliable passkey authentication, use an NTP (Network Time Protocol) service to automatically keep your system time synchronized with an NTP server. Most operating systems include NTP configuration options. Contact your IT organization if you need assistance setting up time synchronization.
