FAQ
What authentication standards does this YubiKey support?
This YubiKey supports FIDO Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) for two-factor authentication and FIDO2 for passwordless authentication. These standards enable secure login across compatible websites, applications, and services without relying on traditional passwords.
How does the biometric fingerprint feature work?
The biometric feature captures and stores a fingerprint template locally on the device using ECC p256 encryption. When authenticating, users touch the sensor to match their fingerprint, granting access without entering a password. The template never leaves the hardware, ensuring privacy and security.
What devices are compatible with the USB-C connector?
The USB-C connector is compatible with laptops, desktops, tablets, and smartphones that feature USB-C ports. It supports plug-and-play functionality on most operating systems without additional drivers, making it suitable for Windows, macOS, Chrome OS, and Android devices.
What does the IP68 rating mean for durability?
The IP68 rating indicates dust-tight protection and the ability to withstand continuous immersion in water up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. This makes the token resistant to spills, rain, and harsh environmental conditions, ideal for use in offices, factories, or outdoor settings.
Can this YubiKey be used for both passwordless and two-factor authentication?
Yes, it supports both use cases. For passwordless authentication, use the FIDO2 standard with biometric verification. For two-factor authentication, use the FIDO U2F standard where the YubiKey serves as the second factor alongside a password, adding an extra layer of security.
What environmental compliance certifications does this product have?
This product complies with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, limiting certain hazardous materials in manufacturing, and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) directive, promoting proper recycling and disposal at end-of-life.
What connectivity or interface options are available?
Connectivity support is listed in the product specifications, including the relevant wireless or port options when available.
