On Friday 24th April, consumer expert Holly Hamilton joined Morning Live to explain the latest security advice on passwords from GCHQ.

The UK's cyber security mission is led by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), which is a part of GCHQ.

The NCSC recommends users opt for passkeys over passwords wherever they are available.

Passkeys are a more secure alternative to passwords that you don't need to remember as they are created and managed safely by the software on your device(s).

For more information on passkeys you can visit the NCSC website here, external.
