No need to dig out your phone and find the authentication code, or wait for several minutes for the text message to arrive. Not only is a physical key more secure, it is also faster (for websites that implement it correctly) - you just simply tap on it and you're done. As it's a more secure method than SMS or authenticator apps, it really should become the standard for all websites - most importantly, banks! So the lack of third party adoption really lets this product down, unfortunately. This is a great product that will keep your online accounts as secure as possible, but the big issue is that this method of 2FA is only supported by a handful of websites. Tap the phone- For NFC-enabled Android phones, simply tap a YubiKey 5 NFC against the phone to complete authentication Insert YubiKey and tap - plug the YubiKey into a USB port on a computer and touch the YubiKey to make sure you are human, not a remote hacker. Register your YubiKey- To use the YubiKey, go to the security settings of a supported service and select two-factor authentication. The YubiKey 5 NFC USB is made to protect your online accounts from phishing and account takeovers.
