Why would we need YubiKeys?
Every second of the day, a phishing attack takes place somewhere. Nine out of ten cybersecurity breaches are caused by simple mistakes like clicking on fraudulent links that look real but are not. YubiKeys can help. Passwords and legacy MFA are no longer sufficient to protect users. To stop modern threats, you must have modern, phishing-resistant authentication. YubiKeys offer the most secure passkey authentication approach that accelerates the move towards a passwordless future, and stops account takeovers in their tracks. |
