    Thanks for the follow-up! Did you see the beginning of my reply from 12 months ago here? I'll quote it below:

    The team is closely following the development of certifications that apply to passkey authenticators like 1Password. As mentioned, this kind of certification currently only applies to U2F and FIDO2 hardware security keys, not software authenticators like 1Password.

    The certification mentioned in the page that you linked to applies to FIDO's Universal Authentication Framework (UAF) which is a different protocol where the authenticator and relying party are the same company. For example, a bank may wish to create an authenticator for their services. UAF does not apply to authenticators like 1Password that want to authenticate any service, UAF only applies to a single service.

    Let me know if I misunderstood.

      Thanks for reply.

      You are right, I just forgot that its separated like this and I also hoped maybe something changed.

      Its just frustrating to see services demanding L1 certification that 1Password simply cant get.

      Thanks.
