I don't understand what you're saying. Which resident keys?
WebAuthn adds a number of crypto schemes -- to wit, I think they add RSA. You can certainly deterministically generate RSA keys but it's a lot more of a pain in the neck than x = HMAC(k, "u2f" + custom); P = xG :)
- GoMonad 8y agoIn the parent comment link to the technical manual it mentions 25 resident keys can be stored. It is now starting to make sense to me why. As jiveturkey pointed out, it allows usernames to be stored. And, as you're pointing out, it's useful for RSA or maybe other crypto. Thanks.
