Today, Yubico is excited to announce the launch of YubiKeys in the AWS Marketplace, providing a new and efficient way for AWS customers to purchase YubiKey solutions.
With the new collaboration, Yubico is now expanding our distribution options to meet customers where and how they chose to procure YubiKey solutions either directly from Yubico’s online store, Yubico eCommerce, through our resellers and distributors, additional partners, and now as SaaS subscriptions in the AWS Marketplace.
“YubiKey authentication subscriptions on AWS Marketplace is a welcome addition to our security category offerings as they support multiple authentication protocols like FIDO2 and WebAuthn and more, allowing it to work with both legacy and modern cloud-based infrastructures,” said Mona Chadha, Director of Category Management at AWS. “Our collaboration with Yubico makes the multi-factor authentication hardware security key easy for customers to procure via AWS Marketplace at a time when cybersecurity risks are more prominent than ever.”
YubiKeys purchased in the AWS Marketplace are sold as a three-year SaaS subscription on existing Amazon Web Services (AWS) contracts with annual payments for enterprise customers. Procuring YubiKey subscriptions on the AWS Marketplace contributes to your AWS consumption commitment and provides simplified transactions utilizing your existing AWS purchase contract and invoices.
YubiKey models, form factors, and number of users is flexible and can be adjusted to fit specific needs and requirements. This includes upgrade benefits and simplified procurement as part of AWS consumptions. To learn how YubiKeys work with AWS, including on AWS Management Console, see here. More details on the technical setup can be found in our solution brief.
