Our organization prioritizes security at all levels, especially for accounts with sensitive access. We've strategically integrated YubiKeys into our authentication processes to protect both IT operations and high-profile individuals like our CEO, CFO, and sales team. These hardware tokens address multiple critical business security needs: Phishing Defense: Passwords are inherently vulnerable to phishing attacks. YubiKeys provide a phishing-resistant layer of security, guarding against unauthorized access even if credentials are compromised. Mitigating Account Takeovers: YubiKeys significantly decrease the risk of account takeovers. This is a major benefit for privileged users and employees handling sensitive data. Streamlined Admin Access: Our IT administrators use YubiKeys for simplified, secure logins to privileged Microsoft accounts and critical firewalls. Scope of Use: We've implemented YubiKeys across our IT administrator team and for high-profile end users with elevated access requirements. This provides robust protection for essential infrastructure and sensitive company data. We aim to expand YubiKey adoption throughout the organization in the future for maximum security coverage.
  • 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.
YubiKeys are incredibly effective for protecting against phishing attacks, as they require physical interaction and can't be remotely compromised. They're ideal for safeguarding high-value targets (executives, IT admins, those handling sensitive data), enhancing remote access security, and often help meet industry compliance regulations. However, the initial hardware cost may be a concern for large-scale deployments with many low-risk users. Users prone to losing small items or scenarios involving older, incompatible systems might pose logistical challenges. Nonetheless, YubiKeys remain robust when addressing phishing-based attacks and securing privileged accounts. Consider a targeted rollout balancing security gain against potential hardware costs and user needs.

I have implemented Yubikey hardware security keys for additional authentication and access control to our most sensitive IT infrastructure and accounts. Yubikeys provides multi-factor authentication, requiring users to have a physical security key, username, and password to gain access. We initially rolled out Yubikeys to our server admins and engineers who require privileged access to our production servers, databases, and network devices. Requiring the Yubikey as a second factor prevents unauthorized access if their credentials are compromised. It also protects against phishing attempts.
  • 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.
For securing your most sensitive accounts, systems, and data that require strong access controls, YubiKeys offer excellent protection by strengthening your organization's authentication strategy. Rather than relying solely on passwords or mobile-based two-factor methods for your highest-risk user logins, YubiKeys provide rock-solid multi-factor authentication tied to a tamper-resistant physical device. This eliminates many of the vulnerabilities associated with passwords and mobile authenticators alone. By requiring both a password and the possession of a YubiKey for access, you can drastically reduce the risks of unauthorized logins, even in the event of password leaks. YubiKeys also provide phishing protection by cryptographically verifying legitimate sites, preventing spoofing attacks.For infrastructure like production servers, databases, and network equipment where compromised access would be catastrophic, YubiKey-secured logins should be mandatory for administrators and engineers. Similarly for business-critical software as a service accounts and registrar/DNS logins where hijacking could shut down the business.

We use Yubico YubiKeys to secure all of our most important company accounts. We make great use of its fido2 capabilities across many services. SMS 2fa is insecure and TOTP authenticator apps come with their own headaches and differ greatly across platforms. While Yubico YubiKeys mostly works consistently and simply across platforms. They also provide a very easy mental model for how employees should think of Yubico YubiKeys and the responsibilities involved. We simply tell everyone to treat their Yubico YubiKeys as if it were a physical key to the office. We also really love the Yubico YubiKeys bios, its UV feature is really great for things like LUKS full disk encryption or SSH keys. I hope Yubico releases a bios v2 YubiKey that greatly increases the resident key limit, increases the lockout attempt from 3 to 5, and adds NFC.
  • 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.
Yubico YubiKeys' bios, its physical presence, and the UV feature are really great for things like full disk encryption(LUKS2) or SSH keys(ed25519-sk). Yubico YubiKeys' bios are also very nice as backup devices since I can have the backup sitting on my desk and not have to worry about other people being able to use it.

I have used multiple generations of Yubico YubiKeys and watched them improve over time. I like to keep them as a backup method for any account that can't be easily reset. If you lose your primary MFA device you can have a YubiKey locked in a safe that gives you a physical key back into the digital world. We also use them for employees who don't have or won't use a personal device as an MFA token. This is a better solution than buying company-owned smartphones.
  • MFA
  • Small device
  • Good price
  • I would like to have my fingerprint unlocked. This would make the device good for two factors in one device.
They are a great backup MFA device because it isn't safe to only have one MFA token. They are also good for anyone who doesn't want to use a smartphone as their MFA device. They have a FIPS-validated solution for anyone who works in government or government contracting.

Yubico YubiKeys have been deployed for login to all available applications, especially any SSO applications. We mandate some form of phishing-resistant MFA across the organization and Yubikeys have helped us reach our goal of making the environment and login secure for all our critical systems.
  • Easy deployment
  • Seamless to use
  • Great redundancy
  • Small format
  • Storage on Yubico YubiKeys
  • Password manager on Yubico YubiKeys
Yubico YubiKeys should be used across all business and personal applications. Yubico YubiKeys are a great way to keep access to enabled systems secure. Any online access that allows for Yubico YubiKeys should be enabled to be used with it so that in case of lost access or breach, physical YubiKey is the best way to recover.

Yubico YubiKeys are an essential part of our logins. When hired, every employee in my business unit receives a YubiKey 5c Nano along with their laptop. Since we are a hybrid workforce and many of us work from home, this allows us to log in with phishing-resistant MFA to all of our SaaS applications that are protected by Duo. Since WebAuthn is the standard from the start, this ensures that the highest level of protection is enforced from an authentication perspective. This has solved the issue of wondering whether or not users are logging in securely from disparate locations. It is also easy for users to authenticate with the tap of a finger to access critical applications - even in a Passwordless workflow!
  • Ease of use
  • Multiple authentication protocols
  • Cross-compatibility
  • Reduce the cost of keys
  • Honestly, Yubico YubiKeys are great and have all the features we need
  • No other criticisms - it just works!
Yubico YubiKeys are great for hybrid applications that support both modern and legacy authentication methods. For example, for web-based applications that are federated behind an IdP, the Yubico YubiKey WebAuthn (FIDO2) mechanism is the gold standard of phishing-resistant MFA. The same Yubico YubiKey (if a supported model) can also be used as an OTP hardware token so that the user does not have to use 2 different roaming authenticators for logging into all their applications. One YubiKey to rule them all!

We initially implemented Yubico YubiKeys as a replacement to our OTP token-based MFA solution, due to the old solution no longer satisfying our security requirements. We started by using them in the role of PIV/CAC for cert-based authentication but soon expanded to using them as FIDO2 devices for other systems. The flexibility and ease with which we were able to deploy this highly secure 2-factor solution are highlights of the product for us.
  • 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
Yubico YubiKeys shines when used as part of a larger MFA solution. It provides a very flexible component, however, it remains dependent on the infrastructure and environment in which it is deployed.

I've been a fan of Yubico YubiKeys for years now. I started out using them on a personal level for MFA with LastPass, and today we use them for practically everything at the office. They work great as a smart card replacement for login to Windows using their PIV functionality, and now they make up one of the most secure ways to access Microsoft 365 as a security key. Their flexibility and physical reliability are unmatched for a device of their kind. We once had someone's dog swallow a YubiKey by accident, and, believe it or not, after washing it off once it came out the other end, it was still functional. If that doesn't speak to how indestructible they are, I don't know what would.
  • Works great as a smart card for logging on to Windows
  • Works great as a Security Key for secure logon to Microsoft 365
  • Practically indestructible
  • They need a few more designs on their Yubistyle Skinz to allow for more personalization
  • Honestly, I can't think of any other issues I've seen
Yubico YubiKeys work great as smart card replacements. We utilize them in conjunction with DUO for MFA at the desktop level, and we can configure the YubiKey as a secure key for Duo, as well as configure DUO to allow logon using smart cards to bypass the DUO requirement, which simplifies Windows logon using a PIN plus the YubiKey.

Whenever I log into a new computer, I value and appreciate my Yubico YubiKeys as a deep security layer to our company's protocol. The physical key is solid and is, what I feel, indestructible since I carry it on my key chain and it always works. I feel it's best method available to prevent hacking and unauthorized access to my business.
  • 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
It's great for accessing your account while traveling our using a remote computer. It's less appropriate to use on a daily basis from your main desktop or laptop.

We use Yubico YubiKeys primarily for 2-factor authentication for all critical systems, including our on premises and cloud-based computing resources' password and authentication requirements, as required by our regulatory agencies. We've been a YubiKey customer for nearly a decade, and the product has worked flawlessly during the deployment. YubiKeys are bulletproof.
  • Reliable security.
  • Low profile and easy to carry.
  • Responsive and accurate.
  • As many interfaces have transitioned from USB-A to USB-C, would be great to have a trade-in program for old keys.
  • Add additional color choices.
  • Custom branding for corporate logo.
Yubico YubiKeys are well suited for 2-factor and OTP authentication. They are not well suited for non-security applications.

Our use of Yubico YubikKeys exceeds 8 years. Primarily, our need is to protect client based software and data that reside on portables, laptops and mobile phones. Our 6 keys ensures the office’s need to maintain HIPPA compliance and limits access by the unauthorized. i found that initial setup is straightforward but one has to adhere to the process. The first few keys took some time, but ongoing was easy. i highly recommend YubiKeys to ensure access control.
  • Handy, and portable
  • Fully encrypted
  • Reasonable price point, especially for bulk purchasing
  • Set up can be confusing
  • Upgrades make previous versions feature obsolete
  • Cost
Data control, and for our environment, the keys help up to ensure privacy protection. HIPPA compliance is a critical need. Limiting electronic prescription writing on certain enabled laptops also fulfills a requirement. Having the Yubico key portable allows movement through the office, and not limited to a specific work station. It helps with workload efficiency.

We are a small organization, but we utilize YubiKeys to solve security issues with multiple terminal access locations. When working, all employees must sign in with their personal YubiKeys, or they will not be able to access their terminal. This allows us greater efficiency in meeting the need for security for our company.
  • Reliable implementation.
  • Quality material and units.
  • Solid security choice.
  • Difficult to use due to angles sometimes.
  • Future unit may also include data.
  • Larger footprint for fingerprint.
It works well for personal home use and in my business use as well. The security of it is the key to my usage. Sometimes access is difficult, which is really not the fault of the YubiKey. Occasionally, it will need to go upside down, which creates problems.

Yubico YubiKeys is excellent everywhere and always, especially as a backup to TOTP authentication. In some cases, perhaps you can't use a USB A, C or NFC, so you'll have TOTP.

Yubikeys are integrated with Userlock to provide 2FA for high risk users on a local active directory account. Also leveraged for a few 2FA functions on various websites. Stores multiple keys on one device making it a one stop shop for all our 2FA needs. Impressively durable during testing as users are quite hard on their devices here. Sent them through the wash, ran them over with a car etc. during testing and have only had one broken and we're still trying to figure out how the user did it. The story just doesn't line up for how tough these devices are.
  • Consistent delivery of 2FA keys
  • Durable as all heck
  • Easy configuration with matching software provider
  • Works just fine with Windows built in 2FA if needed
  • Could user a better management application

The Yubikeys work well for us in both a Windows and Mac environment. Stores plenty of types of keys to cover both your AD logins and a good number of websites or custom applications for 2FA. Easy configuration with their platinum partner Userlock that also gives a huge amount of insight into user login/logoff patterns along with PC control.

Yubico is our go to for MFA and especially when it comes to anything that has elevated privileges that require phish resistance. We consistently expand our use cases as attacks become more common. We require MFA for almost any app that we use and Yubikeys are our only current hardware key we use in the company.
  • Phishing Resistant
  • Efficient MFA
  • Ease of Use
  • Syncing keys with IDP is not efficient
  • Plug N Play would be nice to make it more efficient for management of keys
If you are needing phish resistant MFA (which YOU do!), Yubico is one of the leading brands out there -- so highly recommend them. They are very sturdy/resilient, so should last very long.

They can be not so easy to use when you are trying to authenticate from a mobile device, so areas for improvement there.

Yubikeys are a 'hi I'm willing to die on' - 100% of users have and must use them. The two things that cost organizations money in cyber are Ransomware and Business Email compromise; the primary vectors are phishing and stolen credentials. Yubikeys mitigates the risk posed by both of these vectors. Significant risk reduction is simple, easy, and cheap, and Yubikeys tops the list of 'most cost-effective security solutions.' Yubikeys are faster and easier than PWs for end users, cheaper for the company, and more secure. 'Selling' faster, easier, cheaper, and more secure is fairly straightforward.
  • Mitigate risk posed by phishing.
  • Mitigate risk posed by stolen credentials.
  • None - they are simple and work exactly as advertised.
We have two distinct user bases; 'typical knowledge workers' and 'users without assigned endpoints, emails, etc., who work in a secured room.' As such, Yubikeys is an easy solution for Strong MFA.
