About This Item

Meet the YubiKey by Yubico: the ultimate hardware security key for phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA). The YubiKey requires a physical touch to authenticate, eliminating the risk of remote attacks. The YubiKey functions by combining something you know (your password) with something you have (the physical YubiKey) to add an extra layer of security. The YubiKey can also store Passkeys, which replace passwords entirely. Most cyber attacks begin with compromised account credentials, usually stolen usernames and passwords. Using a security key as two-factor authentication offers a straightforward and effective approach to safeguarding your identity, accounts and devices. Embraced by leading global brands and millions of users worldwide, the YubiKey remains a trusted choice for enhanced security. For consumers: - The highest level of phishing defense, yet easy to use, the YubiKey is your key to trust. - Works out of the box with Google, Apple ID, Facebook, X, Dropbox, password managers, and hundreds of other services. - The YubiKey works across both desktop and mobile with touch or tap-and-go authentication using USB or NFC. - Eliminate the need to reach for your phone to open an app, or memorizing and typing in a code—simply touch the YubiKey to verify and you’re in. - YubiKeys reduce the risk of unauthorized access to online accounts, emails, financial transactions, and sensitive information. For businesses: - Defend against phishing and credential theft with highest-assurance authentication. - Enhance security for users across devices, including desktop and mobile. - YubiKey hardware security keys reduce cyber risks and keep your intellectual property, customer data and financial information safe. - Works out-of-the-box with enterprise systems like Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID, Identity Access Managers, password managers and hundreds of other services. - Supports multiple protocols, including Smartcard/PIV and FIDO2, allowing for modern phishing-resistant authentication with device-bound passkeys. *Note that Yubico recommends having a spare key
