Windows 11 Adds Native Support for Third-Party Passkeys

🔐 Microsoft has added native Windows 11 support for third-party passkey managers, beginning with 1Password and Bitwarden. Introduced in the November 2025 security update, the platform-level passkey API lets Windows generate a cryptographic key pair while storing the private key in the chosen manager, and uses Windows Hello (PIN or biometric) to verify logins. Microsoft also integrated its Microsoft Password Manager from Edge into Windows so users can pick their preferred manager. The change aims to improve portability, phishing resistance, and ease of passwordless authentication across devices.

Phishing Campaign Uses Fake LastPass/Bitwarden Breach Alerts

⚠ The phishing campaign impersonates LastPass and Bitwarden, sending convincing emails claiming breaches and urging users to install a 'more secure' desktop app. The distributed binary installs the legitimate Syncro MSP agent, which then deploys ScreenConnect remote-access software to give attackers persistent control. Cloudflare is blocking the malicious landing pages, and vendors confirm no breaches occurred.
