New code uploaded to Chromium suggests that users will soon be able to log in to Windows 10 computers by entering their Google G Suite credentials.
The code was spotted on the Chromium Gerrit site and is being developed by Chromium developer Roger Tawa. This code has been labeled as “Google Credential Provider for Windows.”
According to Microsoft, Windows 10 uses Credential Providers, such as Windows Hello or a PIN to verify the user's identity. Third-party app developers also have the freedom to create their own credential and submit it to Microsoft to allow users to sign in through a third-party authentication process.
The code indicates that the Google Credential Provider used in this case will allow users to sign in using Google Accounts and ID Administration (GAIA). However, GAIA IDs are created by G Suite administrators, suggesting that this feature would be limited to enterprise users for now.
This would be a welcome feature, as it would make the sign-in process easier and with it, Google could attract the Enterprise market by integrating Windows 10 into the G-Suite platform.
