YubiKey for cryptocurrency
Hardware security cryptography for crypto exchanges
Increase the security of cryptocurrencies and secure your accounts
YubiKeys make protecting cryptocurrency exchanges, accounts, and high-value transactions secure and easy. The YubiKey is the strongest way to protect your customers' logins, trades, and transfers at the exchange level, increasing user trust and accelerating cryptocurrency adoption.
Grow your custody and retail customer base by offering the best security and usability
Traditional MFAs such as SMS, one-time passwords, and mobile authenticators are cumbersome to use and can easily be compromised by phishing attacks, SIM swapping, and man-in-the-middle phishing attacks. Your retail and custody customers need strong authentication with a modern MFA approach that is resistant to phishing and can protect their cryptocurrency accounts from account takeover.
Increase your brand reputation, acquire new customers, and maintain customer loyalty by providing the highest level of security and the best user experience. Offering the YubiKey for strong authentication of exchange accounts ensures that cryptocurrency remains protected at the exchange level, while account secrets remain secure on the key. Authenticating with the YubiKey for exchange accounts is easy—users simply tap/touch their security key. Yubico also offers the Yubico Authenticator , a mobile authenticator where the secret key is securely stored on the YubiKey rather than on the mobile device.
Secure cryptocurrencies and blockchain assets with crypto-backed hardware security
As a cryptocurrency exchange, you hold your customers' private keys, making you an attractive target for hackers. You need to protect yourself against remote attacks and prevent the remote extraction of cryptocurrency private keys by securely storing them on hardware.
Yubico offers the YubiHSM , the world's smallest hardware security module (HSM), providing enhanced protection for cryptographic keys and blockchain assets at a fraction of the cost and size of traditional HSMs.
Protect your customers' PII data from account takeovers
Whether your applications and data, such as customer personally identifiable information (PII), are stored on-premises or in the cloud, you need to ensure they are protected from unauthorized access.
YubiKeys provide highly secure MFA for employees, contractors, and privileged users, ensuring only authorized users have access to PII data and critical systems. YubiKeys integrate seamlessly with existing IAM solutions such as Microsoft, Okta, Duo, and Ping, providing secure authentication for hundreds of applications and services.
