I think the concern is how would you tell the key that you want to enroll a fingerprint with it? On Windows, you'd use Windows software, but Linux has no such biometric management software as far as I know.
- amluto 7y agoProbably a PDU telling the key to do it. Think: $ ykmgr bio enroll This will surely need enough computer help to initiate the process, but the actual biometric data is likely on the dongle itself. Alternatively, the dongle could produce a wrapped key blob that contains a fingerprint. This would look almost like a normal FIDO enrollment and would allow multiple users to share one dongle with access to different keys.
- jolmg 7y ago> Probably Hopefully. The concern is if what the article says is indication that they won't, or at least not for some time. Does "does not require associated software because Windows doesn't need it" mean that they didn't see a point in making the associated software for a user minority? That's what I think the concern is.
