Yubico YubiKeys Review
Verified User
Director in Information Technology
Electrical & Electronic Manufacturing Company, 10,001+ employees
Ensure we extend the security to cover physical (what you have).
Ties into many third party OATH solutions out of the box.
Provides robust defense against man in the middle attacks by ensuring our encryption layers are secure.
Key recovery with the onboard chip requires a third party toolkit.
February 13, 2024
Robust Authentication You Can Hang on a Keychain.
Provides additional factors for authenticating against critical systems.
Significantly reduces the chance of a successful phishing attempt.
Can function as your primary credential for passwordless authentication.
Extremely durable - I've had the same Yubikeys in use for years.
Cross-platform - can be used on all mainstream operating systems and mobile devices.
Yubikeys can get lost so you will need to plan for recovery.
Biometric Yubikeys can be finicky so you may need a backup authentication option.
Yubikeys can be shared or given to someone else.
If you use them for time-based authentication, they store a limited number of codes.

Yubico YubiKeys Review
The easy mental model for employees to understand, "Protect it like a physical key to the office"
Super durable
The security series makes it affordable for every small company
Easy to use
Yubico YubiKeys resident keys (aka passkeys) have a crazy low limit (25).
Yubico YubiKeys' Bios need a slightly increased lock-out limit - Increase from 3 to 5, please.
Yubico YubiKeys' Bios is too expensive, and lacking in basic features. It is missing features even the security key series has but costs 4x as much. Comparing it to a series of 5 features is even worse.
Yubico YubiKeys' Bios needs NFC. Not sure how this would work with the power limits of NFC but it needs it. I've plugged my bio into a large variety of phones and on most, it fails to work.

Review of Yubico YubiKeys as an MFA Solution
Information Technology Specialist 60
Office of Financial Research (Financial Services, 501-1000 employees)
Certificate-based authentication, in PIV/CAC smart card role
FIDO2 device, used with 3rd party systems which are difficult to implement cert-based authentication on
Reliable, long-lasting hardware token, with no batteries to replace, perpetual licensing, and simple management.
Looking forward to pre-provisioning, especially with Okta
Some type of centralized management system, some way to automate inventory management and tracking, at least at the moment of deployment

Sturdy and reliable - even though the key is jumbled in my pocket for years, it works every time.
Super secure - it's the safest way I know to prevent hacking
Super easy to use. Once it's set up, I just press my finger print on it, and I'm in!
A better way to validate a back-up, in the event I lose the device
a near field blue-tooth could be a nice addition (without compromising security)
Smaller connector make it compatible with USB-C

Yubico YubiKeys are a solid, secure choice for MFA

Add additional color choices.
