Clients may communicate with authenticators using a variety of mechanisms. We define authenticators that are part of the client's platform as having a platform attachment, and refer to them as platform authenticators. While those that are reachable via cross-platform transport protocols are defined as having cross-platform attachment, and refer to them as roaming authenticators.
