    Yubico and Ping Identity: Strengthening phishing-resistant MFA for a passwordless future

    Weak and stolen passwords often lead to security breaches and productivity losses due to password resets. The Ping Identity Platform, combined with YubiKey’s hardware security keys, enables robust, phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication, paving the way for a secure, passwordless future. This integration allows organizations to define strong authentication policies, protecting users from phishing and account takeovers while ensuring a seamless and secure experience across all devices and locations.


    The Ping Identity Platform, supportingPingID, PingOne MFA, and PingFederate, integrates effortlessly with YubiKey to deliver a consistent, low-friction authentication process. 

    Supporting the FIDO2/WebAuthn protocol, this combination provides fast, secure passwordless access. PingOne Protect adds risk-based MFA for critical actions, and YubiKey’s wide range of form factors together with the contextual awareness of the Ping Identity Platform gives users a low friction authentication flow with improved protection preventing account takeovers, phishing, and man-in-the-middle attacks.


    YubiKeys and Ping Identity Platform — Passwordless made simple

    PingOne Protect, Ping’s risk-based policy engine, enables risk-based MFA for organizations to require re-authentication for critical actions. A simple tap on a YubiKey can indicate user presence and PIN or biometrics adds user verification for an additional layer of security.


    The YubiKey also supports the Ping Identity Platform in providing a seamless and secure user experience for virtually any identity, any business need, and any deployment model  providing organizations with a path to passwordless that is both streamlined and secure.
