Summary: Support public key cryptographic authentication devices through Web Authentication.
Web Authentication is backward compatible with FIDO U2F second-factor tokens, and also supports more advanced capabilities in future FIDO 2.0 devices. We intend to ship support for USB-connected FIDO U2F devices initially, with other transports and FIDO 2.0 device support to follow in 2018.
