  • OpenSK

    OpenSK is an open-source implementation for security keys written in Rust that supports both FIDO U2F and FIDO2 standards.

    There are a number of FOSS solutions.

    - https://github.com/google/OpenSK <- DIY solution

    - https://solokeys.com/

    - https://www.nitrokey.com/

    The issue with any FOSS solution is that FIDO requires an attestation private key which is shared between a batch of at least 100,000 security keys. Using a DIY or cli app (application running on the host) solution will likely mean you'll be generating that private key yourself, this makes you identifiable across registrations.
