The Total Economic Impact™ Of Yubico YubiKeys

If you’re evaluating stronger authentication, the question isn’t “Does it improve security?”

The real question is: Does it deliver measurable business value and do you have a partner you can actually trust to execute?

That’s exactly what we set out to answer in our commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting, The Total Economic Impact™ of YubiKeys.

Forrester interviewed real organizations using YubiKeys and modeled a composite organization, a global enterprise with 5,000 employees.

The results speak for themselves:

• 265% return on investment over 3 years
• $5.3 million in net present value over 3 years
• $7.3 million in total benefits over 3 years
• Payback in just 8 months

This is independent, third-party evidence based on real deployments.

By moving to phishing-resistant, hardware-backed authentication, organizations reduced exposure to credential-based attack costs by 99.99% and there are a lot more benefits to discover. 

Here is what interviewed companies are saying about working with Yubico and the impact of YubiKeys on their business.

“Yubico is easy to work with. They had the ability to deliver at the scale and velocity we needed.” –Senior manager, cybersecurity, telecom services

“Our CEO stated that we are going to be 100% phishing resistant and passwordless. We had to look for what could help us achieve passwordless for the full employee lifecycle and what was 100% phishing resistant. The only solution that fit the bill was YubiKeys.” – Principal identity engineer, technology
