Overall Satisfaction with Yubico YubiKeys

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
  • Risk reduction
  • Making apps more consumable by allowing external with the use of phish resistant Yubikeys
  • Folks can less rely on passwords as instead lean more heavily on your MFA solution
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.

I helped setup our Yubikey solution over 5 years ago and it was mostly set it and forget it once we understood how the process worked to provision/re-provision them. From the end user standpoint, it's extremely simple so there are no concerns there as almost anyone can figure it out on their own.

Would you buy Yubico YubiKeys again?

Yes

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.
