Yubico YubiKeys Review

I use this product when I remote work the most. So actually being right in this conference here right now, I'm able to use it to log into my systems and check my email, take actions for work if I need to. It enables a lot better remote work capabilities. The way we describe it on the military side is like having common access card and a card reader all in one device.

We're definitely able to give better access to our people. One of the biggest struggles we've had before is card readers to be able to read our smart cards. So having the device that can handle our certificates from our smart cards and be a card reader at the same time, it's really enabled us to be able to proliferate people having network access and then making sure that we have that access locked down and connected through that process.

Our users have really reported loving the ability to just have the one little device with them instead of having to carry a whole plethora of devices to be able to connect to the network. When I was an engineer at my old company, it was the same thing. Being able to have just that one device and could plug it into our computer, take our computer with us to meetings in another building, walking across the street back and forth without having to carry our entire computer back with us, just quickly grab our computer because our keys are connected to our computers and it's good on the other side. With my current job, it's proliferated really the network access for more and more people, which is good because we need those people on the network to be able to take the actions that they need to take and signing the documents that they need to sign. But having that access is good.
