Typically, the Winter holiday season can make for a more quiet year-end for businesses, but things are still in full swing here at Yubico! Over the course of the next two weeks, you’ll find us at four major tech events across the United States and Europe: AWS Re:invent, Gartner IAM Summit, Trustech, and BlackHat Europe.

Whether you attend a speaking session, or stop by our booth, visit us to talk all things YubiKey. Let’s chat about identity and access management (IAM) integrations, next-gen payment and identity ecosystems, IT trends and research, and the future of authentication. We can also catch you up on Yubico’s latest and greatest, including the recently launched YubiHSM 2. To get you up to speed, here are few of the things we’ve been working on over the last few months:

  • YubiHSM 2 is now available. Launched October 31, it’s the world’s smallest and most cost-effective hardware security module (HSM) for server protection, costing only $650.
  • We launched our latest YubiKey form factor, the YubiKey 4C Nano, in September. It’s the only multi-protocol USB-C authenticator of its kind, and is a true design and engineering triumph.
  • A recent integration with identity proofing provider ID.me marks the first roll out of FIDO U2F and YubiKey two-factor authentication for government agencies in the US.
  • The reality of passwordless login is closer with joint efforts from Yubico and Microsoft on the FIDO 2 open authentication standard. The first public demonstration of this was given at the 2017 Cloud Identity Summit (CIS) using a Microsoft Windows 10 computer through Azure Active Directory (AAD) and a YubiKey.

We’d love to fill you in on all of the exciting things we’re working on and how it all plays into the greater security and identity ecosystem, so be sure to pay us a visit! Wondering where you can find us at each show? You can get all the details on our events page.
