Security Keys are (generally) USB-connected hardware fobs that are capable of key generation and oracle signing. Websites can “enroll” a security key by asking it to generate a public key bound to an “appId” (which is limited by the browser based on the site's origin). Later, when a user wants to log in, the website can send a challenge to the security key, which signs it to prove possession of the corresponding private key.

This approach helps conceal the analyst’s origin, contributing to OPSEC when interacting with malicious infrastructure. Moreover, by using VPN exit nodes in different cities and even countries, the researcher can explore the target from multiple geographic vantage points, which sometimes yields additional findings.
