Could this be possible on iOS devices, which also have a secure enclave?

Note that they were bought by Akamai last year. I wouldn't count on the Krypton apps staying around, at least not in their current incarnation. A fork could survive, though.


Thanks, that reminded me of upcoming iOS 14 support for WebAuth/FIDO. Perhaps that can be extended to SSH auth.


Do you mean with Face ID? Since WebAuth/FIDO already work with iOS 13. I have been using U2F with my YubiKey (whichever one has NFC).


Not quite. The point is to use just the iPhone as the authenticator, without an external token.

I think it was posted on HN a few days ago, but I can't find it right now.


Termius[1] already has this feature available in iOS 13.
