Why work with us

Yubico was founded in 2007 with the mission of making secure login easy and available for everyone. 

So, we invented the YubiKey and new global authentication standards for protecting access to all computers, networks, online services and mobile apps—in a simple touch.

Authentication without compromise

Historically, there has been a tradeoff between great security and usability. 

Passwords are fundamentally broken. Basic two factor authentication, like SMS and mobile apps, is increasingly vulnerable to attackers. And the more secure hardware technologies, such as traditional smart cards, are difficult to deploy and use at scale.

The YubiKey changes this.

The bridge to passwordless

We understand that moving to a completely passwordless world takes time, and this is why we designed the YubiKey to be the perfect bridge to passwordless with the multiple protocols and standards the devices support. 

YubiKeys come in many form factors and are compatible with both legacy on-prem solutions as well as modern cloud-based passwordless methods.

Unmatched simplicity

To register and login to a service supporting the YubiKey: enter a PIN or password in the login screen and then touch the device. No driver or client software is needed.

You can also use your YubiKey to turn your computer and phone into a trusted device—no YubiKey needed after first login!

Unbeatable security

YubiKeys have no network connection, no batteries that will uncharge and store no data. They have survived a trip through the washing machine, being run over by a car, and even being eaten by a dog.

All YubiKeys are designed and manufactured in Sweden and USA, with highest quality, security, and respect for our users personal integrity.

Anywhere & everything

YubiKeys work natively with hundreds of business and consumer applications, including all the leading email, IAM solutions, password managers and social media platforms.

To protect access to both legacy and modern IT systems, Yubico pioneered new innovative security protocols and added them all to a single YubiKey.

• Driverless, one touch OTP

• FIDO U2F, FIDO2 /WebAuthn for passwordless authentication

• Smart card and OpenPGP with user verification

YubiKeys are trusted by 4,000+ businesses & world’s leading brands
