Based on the context provided, there is no specific mention of a mechanism to host a private key on Apple infrastructure and distribute it to an app using iOS mechanisms. However, there are discussions around cryptography and secure data handling in various sessions:
-
Quantum-Secure Cryptography: The session "Get ahead with quantum-secure cryptography" discusses using Quantum Secure APIs in iOS 26, which provide secure encryption methods, but it does not specifically mention hosting private keys on Apple infrastructure. Get ahead with quantum-secure cryptography
-
Privacy and Encryption: The session "Integrate privacy into your development process" talks about using CloudKit for end-to-end encryption, but again, it does not specifically address hosting private keys on Apple infrastructure. Integrate privacy into your development process
-
Device Management and Identity: The session "What’s new in Apple device management and identity" mentions certificates and identities, which could be related to key management, but it does not explicitly cover hosting private keys on Apple infrastructure.

If you are looking for a specific mechanism or API, it might be beneficial to explore Apple's documentation or developer resources for more detailed information on key management and distribution.
What’s new in passkeys
Discover how iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS 26 enhance passkeys. We’ll explore key updates including: the new account creation API for streamlined sign-up, keeping passkeys up-to-date, new ways to drive passkey upgrades through automatic passkey upgrades and passkey management endpoints, and the secure import/export of passkeys. Learn how these improvements enhance user experience and security, and how to implement these updates in your apps to provide a smoother, more secure authentication experience. To get the most out of this video, first watch “Meet passkeys” from WWDC22.
Integrate privacy into your development process
Learn how to build privacy into your apps from the planning stages through deployment. We’ll cover practical ways to integrate privacy at each step of the development lifecycle, focusing on data minimization, on-device processing, and transparency and control. You’ll discover how to use Apple’s tools and frameworks to protect user data and create a privacy-respecting app experience.
Get ahead with quantum-secure cryptography
Learn how to protect your app’s sensitive user data from the emerging threat of quantum computing, and safeguard user privacy. We’ll explore different quantum attacks, their impact on existing cryptographic protocols, and how to defend against them using quantum-secure cryptography. You’ll learn how to use quantum-secure TLS to secure network data, and use CryptoKit’s quantum-secure APIs for securing application data.
