Another use case for PRF is protecting identity wallets. PRF can be used to derive encryption keys that encrypt/decrypt identity data stored locally in a browser or remotely on some cloud storage. This currently works in Google Chrome. A demo of such a wallet can be viewed in the video embedded in a recent Yubico blog:
"The first working demo of a web based EU digital identity wallet leveraging FIDO open authentication standards"
