Yubico’s mission is to “make Internet identification secure, easy, and affordable for everyone”. The firm offers a physical token called YubiKey, which can be used for secure identification to web services.
The device is a simple one-button USB keyboard designed to generate a unique user identity and a one-time passcode, which will be sent to the PC as keyboard characters, thus saving the user from typing. When submitting the web form with the passcode, the information is verifed against the security provider’s authentication server. YubiKey can also be combined with a PIN or password for two-factor authentication.
The company targets any firms and services where fast and frequent online authentication is needed.
