STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN – September 23, 2020 – Yubico, the leading provider of hardware authentication security keys, today announced expanded global availability of YubiEnterprise Subscription, the company’s service-based offering that has transformed the way that enterprises purchase, upgrade, and support YubiKey security keys at scale. Now, Yubico channel partners across the world — including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Nordics, BeNeLux, Australia, and more — can efficiently sell strong YubiKey authentication at scale.
In today’s new norm of remote work, and with increases in COVID-related phishing attacks and credential theft, organizations realize the necessity of YubiKey hardware-based authentication. YubiEnterprise Subscription enables organizations to leverage flexible and cost-effective ways to procure strong authentication and achieve the highest level of phishing defense at scale.
“YubiEnterprise Subscription provides considerable cost and time savings, helping organizations to simplify their approach to strong authentication as their business evolves,” said Fredrik Krantz, Senior Vice President, EMEA and APAC, Yubico. “With immediate success from the initial roll out in the US and Canada, we are proud to now offer YubiEnterprise Subscription to our EMEA and APAC channel partners.”
Historically, YubiKeys have been sold on a per-device basis. Now, with YubiEnterprise Subscription, customers are able to purchase YubiKeys on a per-user basis, and experience predictable OpEx spending. Additional benefits include the replacement of lost or stolen YubiKeys, and upgrades to new YubiKey models, such as the recently launched YubiKey 5C NFC. YubiEnterprise Subscription is available in three different tiers with a minimum initial purchase for 750 users.
