The YubiKey® - the key to the cloud
Superior security
The YubiKey is a unique USB-key providing strong two-factor authentication, combining something you know (a PIN or password) with a physical device generating encrypted one time passwords. It protects your online identity from malware and hackers at a security level that can be compared with a smart card, and is manufactured in Sweden and California with best practice security processes.
Unmatched ease of use
Placed in the USB port, the YubiKey is recognized as a USB keyboard, so it works on all computers, platforms and browsers with no client software needed (Windows, Linux, Mac, iPad, Android, Firefox, Chrome, etc.). With a simple touch on the device, it automatically generates and enters a unique identity and One-Time Password (OTP) into the login field of the application supporting the YubiKey. The OTP is instantly verified, enabling secure login within a second.
Practically indestructible
The environmental friendly YubiKey is minimal sized (3 grams, 3 mm thin), battery-free and waterproof. It survives going through the laundry and being run over by a car. With extra hard gold on the USB-contact it will last for daily use on a key chain for 10 years.
