How is the transition to passkeys going in 2025? 🔑 This week, we’re joined by Nick Steele from the Product team at 1Password to talk all things passwordless. He walks us through the current state of adoption and a brand-new standard that will change the way we move and share passkeys.

In Crash Course, we break down public-key encryption — the powerful technology that keeps your passkeys (and so much more) secure. 🔐 You’ll finally understand how those mysterious “key pairs” actually work.

Meanwhile, in Watchtower Weekly, we’re heading to the factory floor to explore how ransomware is hitting manufacturing hard — and what it really costs when production grinds to a halt. 🏭💥

Plus, in #Ask1Password we share tips on how to organize your vaults and tags like a pro, and wrap things up with another law-breaking round of Hack or Hoax?! 🧑‍⚖️
