YubiKey - U2F Hardware keys from Yubico

The YubiKey keys that you will find in this category are deceptively similar to a regular flash drive. Don't get confused though! Their use is completely different from the function of a USB stick. YubiKey keys are used for strong two-factor authentication. Although in order to use them, you must first insert them into the USB port of your computer, laptop or plug the dongles into your mobile phone, but here the similarity between Yubico keys and a pen drive actually ends. The YubiKey was created so that you can make a secure, two-step verification when logging into any system, portal or service.

What does the YubiKey protect against?

The YubiKey will protect you against the so-called. phishing , i.e. an attack that aims to steal your data (especially those that you use to log in). It is known that no physical hardware keys will guarantee you full protection against every possible threat that you may encounter online, but when it comes to thwarting phishing, U2F keys work perfectly and are unrivaled. Yubico keys in the era of more and more frequent cyberattacks are becoming sought after and highly appreciated by many users and even entire companies, because they provide 100% protection against phishing !

Where can the YubiKey be used?

You will use the YubiKey to secure your account, e.g. in most of the most popular websites, services and social networking sites , i.e. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter or YouTube. YubiKey will also protect your data on Gmail, WP Mail and Microsoft account against phishing. In addition, you can apply YubiKey on GitHub, GitLab and when logging in to your Google account. An interesting fact is that ING Bank Śląski is the first bank in Poland that will allow its customers to use YubiKey keys when logging into online banking.

What to look for when choosing a Yubico key?

  • When planning to buy a U2F dongle, pay attention to the USB type, i.e. the type of connector that is found in devices to which you will want to connect a specific dongle. The U2F keys available in the SAPSAN store offer have a full range of formats, so you can buy a U2F key from us, which will allow you to secure your online accounts on all devices you use. U2F security keys will give you the opportunity to use security on both stationary devices (computers, laptops) and mobile devices (smartphones, tablets). However, in order to choose the right U2F dongle, you first need to know the type of USB connector on your devices.
  • Also, consider YubiKey pricing. The ones with type A input are the cheapest. Note that YubiKey prices may be higher if the U2F key has an Apple input (Lightning connector) , because then the cost of producing such a key is higher, due to the fact that the manufacturer must have a special license for it.
  • YubiKey prices also depend on whether a particular model has a fingerprint reader (the U2F key that supports biometric authentication using fingerprint recognition then has "Bio" in the name).
  • U2F security keys called Security Key (type A and type C) are legacy keys. What does it mean? That some browser extensions (e.g. Lastpass) will only support the newer U2F YubiKey key and you will not be able to connect this older model. Newer Yubico U2F products are safer because they support current security standards.

Why is it worth having YubiKeys?
