For enhanced security and ease of use for users, we have enabled passkeys for logging in to our website.
Passkeys are the most secure authentication method available to date. In addition to being secure, they’re also easy to use! You don’t have to remember a password anymore…all you have to do to use a passkey once it is set up is to unlock your phone or tablet or computer with your finger, face, or pin code. And with most people either in the Apple, Microsoft or Google ecosystems, your passkeys are even easier to use. No more having to reset passwords and remember them – or worse, write them down on a post it note under the keyboard!
We are not forcing you to use a passkey – but it is WAY better than a password…so we STRONGLY ENROURAGE you so configure a passkey for our site – and if you get the opportunity to do so for other sites you use on a regular basis (especially financial ones or where your credit card info is stored), we highly recommend adopting passkeys for those sites as well. To set up a passkey on the NNS website, click the green “add passkey” button below.
Even though this article is from 2023, it still explains in quite some detail what a passkey is and why it is safer than a password: https://www.tomsguide.com/news/what-are-passkeys
