YubiKey
The #1 security key for strong two-factor authentication.

Yubico makes the YubiKey, a hardware security key that provides phishing-resistant two-factor and passwordless authentication. It works by plugging into a USB port or tapping an NFC reader, instantly securing access to personal accounts, work tools, and enterprise systems. The product is used by organizations like OpenAI, T-Mobile, and Hyatt Hotels to replace passwords and block credential theft.
Users plug the YubiKey into a USB port or tap it on an NFC reader for instant, one-touch login without passwords or codes.
