Flexible authentication options-passwordless, 2FA and MFA

FIDO2 and U2F are modern authentication protocols that deliver a high level of security using public key cryptography. FIDO2 marks an evolution of U2F by now enabling multiple user scenarios including strong first factor (passwordless), strong second factor or multi-factor authentication (passwordless plus PIN).

With these capabilities, the Security Key Series can entirely replace weak static username/password credentials with strong passwordless hardware-backed security, ensuring that these credentials cannot be reused, or shared across services. This helps protect against phishing and MiTM attacks and also mitigates risks related to server breaches. These protocols are also privacy preserving, with no personally identifiable information stored on the device, ensuring safety even if the key is misplaced.

Individuals all over the world trust the Security Key Series by Yubico to help secure their Google, Dropbox and personal Microsoft accounts including access to services such as Outlook, Office, Skype, OneDrive, XBox Live, and many other services. One single security key enables secure login on a practically unlimited set of services, with an affordable, and easy to use solution.

The keys combine hardware-based authentication, public key cryptography, and FIDO2/WebAuthn and U2F, and offer NFC and USB support. With these capabilities, the Security Key Series helps eliminate account takeovers across desktops, laptops and mobile.
