The impact of Yubico YubiKeys for our organization's security level and risk exposure has been significant. We have seen a dramatic decrease in successful phishing attacks, particularly those targeting privileged accounts. This has helped mitigate the risk of ransomware and account take overs. YubiKeys have also helped us to secure our devices and corporate systems by providing an additional layer of authentication that's nearly impossible to compromise remotely. Overall, YubiKeys have been a valuable investment in our security posture, reducing our risk exposure and protecting our most sensitive resources.

Using YubiKeys has significantly improved our organization's security posture and reduced risk exposure from various threats. As the head of IT security, I've seen firsthand the positive impact of deploying YubiKeys.By requiring a physical YubiKey as a second factor, we've made it extremely difficult for external attackers to gain access to employee accounts, even if they manage to steal passwords. Phishing campaigns and ransomware attacks are far less effective when strong multi-factor authentication exists. The YubiKeys have proven invaluable at blocking unauthorized access to our most vital infrastructure and web accounts. Even internal threats from compromised employee credentials are contained by enforcing YubiKey usage on admin accounts and privileged access workstations. Deploying YubiKeys hasn't completely removed the need to remain vigilant against emerging threats. But they have undeniably reduced our organization's exposure to identity theft, financial fraud, data breaches, and operational disruptions.

MFA on Your Keyring

Cloud accounts are no longer the #1 attack vector. It is highly unlikely that an account protected with MFA could be remotely compromised. This lets us focus on other areas that consistently need improvement, like the human element. MFA helps cloud adoption and enables confidence in cloud security systems. I know if the cloud service supports Yubico YubiKeys they are security conscious.

Yubico YubiKeys are important for phishing-resistant setups. it has made our SSO secure, reduced the risk of exposure and breaches to our production environment, and allowed us to secure all applications that it can be enabled.

It has greatly reduced the likelihood of successful phishing attacks, makes MFA easier for end users (better experience equals users will comply with security controls), and helps secure applications by providing out-of-the-box compatibility with modern web browsers. Our overall risk exposure and attack surface have diminished to allow secure authentications from anywhere in the world.

Significantly reduced our risk exposure, by expanding the number of systems we are able to provide MFA authentication on. It has also provided a great alternative authentication method when users lose their primary authenticator (smart card).

Obviously it greatly decreases the chance of compromise. Securing an account with a security key never guarantees protection, but greatly decreases the chance of an account breach. My providing protection against MITM attacks and phishing resistance, we believe that we have an increased security level and are better protected against most forms of common breach.

Security, Security, Security. Their devices are top notch in combating security related issues in the workplace. I would recommend their devices to any level of business from small to very large to handle their security issues and needs. This level of detail is required for future use and security risks.

Our Yubico Yubikeys have become an essential part of our security program. It not only solves the issue of securing devices but also minimizes our risk exposure, such that our insurance for cybersecurity has dropped significantly. We also have the peace of mind that we have taken an extra step to secure our systems.

There have been zero security incidents regarding accounts secured with Yubico YubiKeys since we started using the Yubico YubiKeys. We've never had to trade security for convenience and it comes at a great cost so it's easy to implement. Tie it to another 2FA method like TOTP (Time-based One-Time Passwords) and you're good to go.

Yubikeys significantly reduce the amount of exposure to account takeover. This also satisfies regulatory requirements for 2FA on specific high risk accounts. As an added bonus, most large companies support integration of Yubikeys into their online applications further increasing security and reducing attack surface. New Yubikeys also support NFC 2FA making for additional security for phones where plugging in a key isn't really an option.

It allows us to meet any current levels of compliance with frameworks like PCI, RAMP, etc. It also is our go to for any highest risk assets because it can secure tenants, admin users, applications, and data. It is highly recommend to ensure that your most elevated users are using something like a Yubikey that is FIDO2 compliant.
