!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([PoP]) is an [assertion] where the presenter presents some [Cryptographic Key], [Security Token] or [Secret][{$pagename}] implies a [Possession Factor] as used to [Authenticate] and often used in [Multi-Factor Authentication]
[{$pagename}] refers to [Cryptographic] [methods] that mitigate the [risk] of [Security Tokens] being stolen and used by an [attacker]. In contrast to '[Bearer Tokens]', where mere possession of the [Security Token] allows the [attacker] to use it, a [PoP] [Security Token] cannot be so easily used - the [attacker] [MUST] have both the token itself and access to some [key] associated with the token (which is why they are sometimes referred to '[Holder-of-Key]' ([HoK]) tokens).
[PoP] describes a general security characteristic of a [Secret] - there are different ways to achieve that characteristic.

* [Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession] ([DPoP])
* [SAML Holder of Key]
