Hardware Security Keys in Linux

[Keith I Myers]

Good Morning All,

With the introduction of Linux Application support on ChromeOS/ChromiumOS, it has become a invaluable tool for software development. I currently exclusively use my Pixelbook as my primary workstation and it works flawlessly.

I saw that GitHub is going to start requiring hardware tokens to be used for git CLI applications. Generally this is a great move from a security standpoint but ChromeOS/ChromiumOS currently lacks the ability to pass control of the keys into Linux. Any plans to change this or should I submit a feature request?

GPG can be used for SSH based Git operations and this smart card functionality of the Yubikey and Nitrokey does pass through to the Linux VM, but yes, the actual WebAuthN functionality would be great to have for much less required configuration on the user's part.
