Unlike the traditional second factor authentication devices, FIDO U2F provides a much convenient solution to replace or be a plus of traditional password.

• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) – Better security for your online services
• The simplest, most effective way to make sure users are really who they say they are.
• Easy to use strong authentication for employees, customers and partners.
• Reduce IT costs, secure & easy to use
• One key, many services

Fido U2F is a two-factor authentication method (2FA) developed by the FIDO Alliance. FIDO U2F allows users to log into their accounts securely. The device protects private keys with a tamper-proof secure element.

Two-factor authentication (2FA) strengthens access security by requiring two methods (factors) to verify your identity. These factors can include something you know - like a username and password, plus something you have - like a security key to approve authentication requests.

FIDO U2F has been successfully deployed by large scale services, including Facebook, Gmail, Dropbox, GitHub, Salesforce.com, and many more.

With the BioPass FIDO2 Security Key a new era of ubiquitous, phishing-resistant, strong authentication is made possible.

• Simplest and strongest authentication possible
• The most effective way to make sure users are really who they say they are.
• Replaces weak passwords with strong crypto hardware- and biometric-based authentication
• A single security key that can work across thousands of accounts with no shared secrets.

FIDO2 is based on public key cryptography and solves multiple user scenarios including strong first factor (passwordless), strong second factor, and multi-factor authentication. With these capabilities, the hardware security key can entirely replace weak static username/password credentials with public key crypto hardware- and biometric-based authentication to protect against phishing, session hijacking, man-in-the-middle, and malware attacks.
