PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwired) — 06/08/15 —
YubiKeys offer a wide range of strong authentication options including one-time password (OTP), FIDO U2F, OpenPGP, PIV support and more.
Announced today, the OTP functionality of the YubiKey will be integrated directly into PingID, the multi-factor authentication engine within Ping Identity–s flagship cloud identity service, PingOne. With this support, an individual can use the YubiKey as a second factor if they are not able to access their mobile device. Additionally, should login credentials be stolen, a hacker would not be able to access the SSO environment without the YubiKey.
Yubico will also be highlighting U2F login to Google accounts and recent added support for . This functionality allows Google Drive for Work admins to monitor, track, and report on key usage, plus provide policies for optional or mandatory enrollment. These management capabilities are a powerful evolution in the value of YubiKeys for enterprises of all sizes.

The session will provide a historical perspective on hardware multi-factor authentication (MFA) and hurdles that have prevented it from mainstream consumer and enterprise appeal.
