Duo and Yubico YubiKeys actually work very well together. We have chosen to use these two products together to make safe and secure MFA (including Passwordless) available to all users. The ease of use that Duo allows for both OTP import and WebAuthn enrollment makes it possible for modern and legacy applications to be protected by Duo MFA via Yubico YubiKeys as the second factor.

If you compare it to authenticator apps, I'd say it's much more easy to set this up for the individual user. Well, it's Swedish. It's also very well documented. There are a lot of guides on how to use them and I have a lot of faith in the security posture of Yubico and how the keys are developed and general security of the solution.

We used to use something from Okta that has I think a passwordless authentication or readily get a notification that's an alternative, but it's software, not hardware. That's the other thing I would say. We have tried nothing else on the hardware side. Its hardware token, ease of use, easy integration, more reliance on an external device like a phone or something. If your phone gets lost, then you are worried about your multifactor, no problems with this device.

Yubico YubiKeys has been a leader in the security key market, and I think they have a new product we just read about two days back and they can store up to a hundred private keys now. So I think this is what it distinguishes them from the market, apart from this, whatever features we need personally and for our customers. So they provide all those features, but versus the other brands.

I have used the tokens that display a little six-digit code that rotates, but I feel that's just like my phone does that, so why would I have a separate device for that? This at least provides a physical thing I have to either insert or tap to use. I think they're not necessarily cheap products to manufacturer, but I think Yubico YubiKeys is like price value propositions there.

I have tested the Google Titan Keys. I found Yubico YubiKeys to be a bit more durable and last longer. I've already had a few Google Titan Keys that have just gone out. They just stopped working. So the Yubico YubiKeys are a bit more lightweight and easier to fit on a key ring. They last longer. I've never had one die on me. So definitely, just a bit better in that sense.

I prefer Yubico YubiKeys because sometimes logging in with pass keys on an iPhone you have to do kind of two handshakes. One is the QR code and then doing a face ID. So that's an extra step versus the Yubico YubiKeys, which I can just put in and scan with my finger.

They offer ways to store passwords or MFA support, but most need a root password. In addition, LastPass and 1Password do not have much support for MFA. This results in a lack of MFA support. For Okta, although it offers MFA and SSO, the OTP can be very annoying to have as I do not always know where my phone is placed.
