Yubico Authenticator is a security Windows program that allows users to protect their digital files stored in various devices including computers.
Key
Similar to its mobile version, the desktop program requires a YubiKey to work properly. You have to insert this device on the PC you use to securely access all your accounts and details. It is possible to buy the key in one of the featured retailers or on the official website of Yubico.
Compared to other similar authenticators, this one is extra secure because it works only with a YubiKey that allows only one user to access account details. This means that having that single device, you are alone can verify sign in.
Full time security
With this advanced authenticator users can protect their digital life from unauthorized access. It is possible to generate time-based one-time passwords for accounts, an additional layer of security. You can verify your identity by entering the combination of letters sent to your Yubico Authenticator when signing in.
The program applies to all accounts created with your email, ID card and mobile number. Therefore, you are able to protect all your personal and subscription details whether it is banking client, streaming service, shopping store and other platforms.
