Intel Security announced their newest integration for theTrue Key applicationtoday to work with Windows Hello. More specifically, Windows 10 users can use the True Key extension for Microsoft Edge to keep all of their accounts safer.
The True Key application by Intel is a singular sign in to protect passwords across their account. The app also fills in log in credentials automatically and can work across multiple browsers seamlessly. True Key can lock all of this information behind unique identifiers such as facial recognition, fingerprints, or any other multi-factor authentication methods.
This is the start of a ‘password-free future’ according to Richard Reiner, CTO of True Key. As he explained in the press statement:
“The password problem won’t disappear overnight, which is why working with Windows Hello is a big step in the shared vision between Intel Security and Microsoft of a password-free future. By providing True Key app users with enhanced multi-factor protection and support for dynamic web form-filling – we continue to build an application that will encourage better password management and online security.”
Alongside the announcement True Key also got an update with improved authentication methods and can now support mobile browsers. Here’s what else they’ve added:
While users can only store fifteen credential pairings for free, the premium $20 yearly subscription will give you unlimited use. If you’d like to try out the True Key extension for Microsoft Edge, you can download it from the Windows Store by clicking the Appbox below. Afterward, enable Windows Hello in your security preferences to take full advantage of the app’s features.
