Yubikey shows in Azure 2FA methods as "Passkey (other device-bound)"

Question

Dear all,

* We have a user who has been assigned a Yubikey for 2FA logging into Windows / Active Directory domain

* I use this url to audit the 2FA methods used by our users:

Authentication methods - Microsoft Azure

* The 2FA method listed for this user is:

Passkey (other device-bound)

* I humbly find that surprising for a Yubikey

* I comment so since I'd have expected the Yubikey to be listed as: "FIDO2 Security Key"

* Can someone guide me please to what I am mis-understanding?

Thanks for any help.

Regards,

Steve
