Introduction

Yubico’s award-winning security key, the YubiKey, is 100% built for security and trusted by millions, delivering modern authentication and peace of mind to Enterprises, SMBs, Individuals, and Developers.

The YubiKey is hardware authentication reimagined. Secure the identities of your employees and users, reduce support costs, and experience an unmatched user experience.

How YubiKey works

No more reaching for your phone to open an app, or memorizing and typing in a code – simply touch the YubiKey to verify and you’re in. Additionally, you don’t need to use the YubiKey every time. Once an app or service is verified, it can stay trusted. It’s that easy.

YubiKeys are available in a wide range of form factors, support multiple authentication protocols and work with hundreds of applications and services. They do not require a mobile connection or batteries, are water and crush-resistant, and last a really long time.

Easy to use across all devices

Register your YubiKey

To use the YubiKey, go to the Security Settings of a supported service and and select “Add Security Key”.

Insert YubiKey & touch

On a computer, insert the YubiKey into a USB-port and touch the YubiKey to verify you are human and not a remote hacker.

Tap YubiKey to device

Tap the YubiKey on NFC enabled devices. Once registered, many services will not require the key after first login.
