(Azure DevOps only) What format is your remote URL?
Can you access the remote repository directly in the browser?
Yes, I can access the repository
Expected behavior
Git credential manager allows me to use a security key, which is the only thing that my organization allows me when working from home.
Actual behavior
There is no support for security keys, which means I cannot work from home.

No logs, security key is not supported. My corporation only allows this so I cannot work from home as I am unable to login.

Research direction
Start by reviewing Git Credential Manager's authentication flow for Azure DevOps and the requirements for security-key authentication on Windows. The issue does not name files or tests; done would mean a Windows user can authenticate to an Azure DevOps remote using an organizationally required security key.
