Let me be more specific, this should work in apps not just the browser and should work with my logging into my laptop in the browser and leveraging my phone as a FIDO "key".
- dwaite 4y ago> This should work in apps not just the browser Apple, Google and Microsoft all have native API variants of the Web Authentication API. These typically use entitlements requiring authorization back to a website. This means e.g. a Twitter application could leverage the same authenticator registrations as twitter.com, leveraging both platform and roaming security keys. >... and should work with my logging into my laptop in the browser and leveraging my phone as a FIDO "key". The press release details this commitment; for instance, I can use an Android phone to log into a website on my Mac. An example of such an option should be visible on all shipping desktop Chrome browsers if you do a Web Authentication registration or authentication request (I believe unfortunately currently titled something like 'Add an Android phone'). On the Apple side, being able to leverage this is currently sitting behind a developer feature toggle. One can hope that this will be extended to say the Windows platform itself - at that time, I would expect be able to use my iPhone or Android phone to log into any Windows machine on an AAD-backed domain.
