  • Can you explain to me the workflow you have envisioned for the host identity key in /etc/ssh being keyed of a FIDO2 secure element? You plug a secure element into a server?

    Sounds like you want something like a HSM that integrates into your sshd to pull the certificates. Even then you have the chicken and egg problem, how do you identify the hardware to the HSM? You need some trusted boot environment, and now your down into vender specific implementations to “trust” the booted hardware.
