Hey everyone,

I am currently using an old(er) HYPERSECU FIDO key, USB-A with a button, and I am looking to

  • secure my phone as well (NFC) and, if possible
  • add biometric authentication to the mix.

Are there good alternatives or better: upgrades to the YubiKey which do support NFC as well as biometrics and come with a USB-C?

Thanks for your time 👋

    I know yubikey is the biggest in the market and it’s always good to have alternates but is there a reason you don’t want them?

    I thought their security was pretty good and haven’t heard of any breaches.

      May be similar issue as mine. Yubico has pretty awful on-device password support, but for MFA it works. With yubico you’re better off thinking of per-site passphrases that you keep in memory in addition to their one-click password entry, so it gets memory heavy.

        My main thing is my paaword manager is protected by 2fa…maybe not 100%secure granted, but I am not a state level actor and have no major money/property to steal. That’s probably why I have no similar issues.
