This is a pretty major announcement as far as Financial Services is concerned. https://www.yubico.com/2015/11/4th-gen-yubikey-4/ https://www.yubico.com/2015/11/yubico-docker-codesign/ Sure, it doesnt support Biometrics but by the time we are ready for Bio, the Bio will be ready for us. PKCS#11 is the underlying mechanism that Government & Financial industries uses PIV cards as cryptographic identity. I believe this even meets NIST/X9 standards on FIPS 2, 3, 4 certified device for tokenization and cryptographic operations. I talked with their CEO Stina about this feature so I am glad they exposed it. This can be used to safely assure transactions even in a compromised browser. It seems my security concerns of financial transactions in a browser are being systematically removed. Erik Anderson Bloomberg
