Passkey is "something you own" right?

I have something I own, it's a Yubikey

I thought passkeys had to be behind biometrics, so “own” + “are”?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

How i interpretted it is that the biometrics provide access to the tpm which is like a built in yubikey you "own".

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

I don't think that's true.

You can store them in keepassxc which can be accessed with a password.

I think it's "have" + "know" or "are".

So you have the device with the passkey, and know the unlock pin or are the person with the biometrics.

And how many sites support Yubikeys/Security Keys? Not many. I doubt we'll see more either now with Passkeys becoming more prominent.

I have two Yubikeys and other than securing my password manager vault they are rarely used elsewhere.
