🔐 Bitwarden now supports logging into Windows 11 using passkeys stored in the Bitwarden vault, enabling phishing‑resistant, passwordless sign-in across devices. The capability is available on all plans, including the free tier, and uses a QR scan and mobile confirmation to release a vault‑stored Entra ID passkey. Required: Entra ID–joined devices, FIDO2 sign‑in enabled, and a registered Entra ID passkey in the vault. Microsoft will roll out the Windows support this month, subject to Entra configuration.

🔒 Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser now supports Web Authentication (WebAuthn) redirection, enabling users to authenticate to websites from within remote browser sessions using local FIDO2 security keys, passkeys, and platform authenticators like Windows Hello or Touch ID. This capability works with Chromium‑based local browsers such as Google Chrome 136+ and Microsoft Edge 137+, but not with Safari or Firefox. Administrators must enable WebAuthn redirection in the Secure Browser portal and configure the WebAuthenticationRemoteDesktopAllowedOrigins policy on local browsers to allow secure token forwarding. The feature is available at no additional cost in all supported regions.

🔒 Amazon DCV 2025.0 is the latest release of the high-performance remote display protocol, delivering enhanced security and productivity for virtual desktop and application sessions. The update adds WebAuthn redirection on Windows and browser-based WebAuthn on Linux to enable security-key authentication in native and SaaS apps, plus server-side keyboard layout handling and alignment for Windows clients to improve input consistency. Other improvements include Linux client support for ARM, Windows Server 2025 host compatibility, and scroll wheel optimizations for smoother navigation. See AWS documentation and the DCV product page for full release notes.
