The Security Key C NFC is the essential physical passkey with core protection for your digital life from phishing attacks. It ensures only you can access your accounts, securing 100 of your favorite services including Google, Microsoft, and Apple. It allows for fast, convenient login by simply plugging the key into a device via USB-C or tapping it against an NFC-enabled phone, operating entirely without the need for batteries or recurring fees. While the YubiKey 5 Series offers broader protocol support for complex needs, the Security Key Series provides a streamlined experience by focusing on the latest modern passkey standards, including FIDO2/WebAuthn and FIDO U2F. Built in Sweden to be highly durable, it is waterproof and crush-resistant, making it a reliable foundation for your personal security.
