Some cryptographic authenticators allow the subscriber to copy (i.e., clone) the authentication secret to additional devices, usually via a sync fabric. This eases the burden for subscribers who want to use additional devices to authenticate. Specific requirements for syncable authenticators and the sync fabric are given in Appendix B .
