Can someone explain to me like I am 5 years old what is a secret in the context of security keys and if Nitrokey and Yubikey encrypts them please ?
Thanks in advance
This is my attempt to answer as a 5 years old 
Imagine you have a special treasure chest (your online account). To open it, you need a secret key (a “secret”).
Nitrokey and YubiKey are like magical key holders—they safely keep your secret inside and never show it to anyone. When it’s time to open your treasure chest, they quietly use that secret for you without letting anyone else ever see it. This keeps your treasures safe from bad people who want to peek inside.
