FIDO authentication protocols enforce the verification of message origin, so bogus websites will not be recognized, which makes them thoroughly resistant to phishing and man-in-the-middle attacks.Online service providers that support FIDO2 U2F as part of their two-step verification include Google, Dropbox, and GitHub. Compatible with Windows, MacOS, Linux, and Chromebook, this security key is designed to work straight out of the box and enjoys native support in Chrome and other FIDO-compliant browsers and add-ons.
The FIDO2 U2F Token from Key-ID is a compact USB security token that adds a strong second factor to user logins for the growing number of online services that support this new technology. Just press the button to log in, no waiting around for an SMS! These work seamlessly on Chrome or Opera web-browsers, with no drivers or special plugins. But maybe you're tired of hauling out your phone every time you log in to your Gmail or GitHub account? That's where physical USB tokens can make your life way easier. Normally this is done with a cell phone, where you get an SMS or phone call.
Two-factor adds another layer of protection in case your password is stolen or hacked, by relying on a physical thing you own.
It's never been more important to add two-factor authentication to your online accounts.
