(SoftU2F 是通过软件模拟的符合 FIDO 标准的通用第二因素 (U2F) 安全密钥工具，默认支持 Chrome 和 Opera 浏览器及安装了 U2F 扩展的 Safari 和 Firefox 浏览器。SoftU2F 只能运行在 macOS 系统。)
In an effort to increase the adoption of FIDO U2F second factor authentication, we’re releasing Soft U2F—a software-based U2F authenticator for macOS.
Soft U2F currently works with Google Chrome and Opera’s built-in U2F implementations, as well as with the U2F extensions for Safari and Firefox.
When a site loaded in a U2F-compatible browser attempts to register or authenticate with the software token, you’ll see a notification asking you to accept or reject the request. You can experiment on Yubico’s U2F demo site:
And as of today, you can download the Soft U2F installer and configure it for use with your GitHub account.
