Good feature set. I use
Good feature set. I use to hold some SSH keys and a couple of X509 private keys (e. g. Breakglass Kubernetes). Bought NFC version. It would be nice if you could disable apps on NFC and require a management pin to re-enable. As it stands, even a disabled service can just be re-enabled over NFC.

Prefect for traveling
I travel a lot with my job and I always need access to the internet so when I was given the chance to try out the YubiKey 5C NFC security device thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was happy to do so. I would say that having this MFA is crucial if you have any sensitivity work document or client information and personal information you are continually needed ...

Setup is lengthy
My overall impression of the YubiKey 5c NFC hardware-based MFA key is that it’s extremely hard to find answered to questions during the setup process. The manual is 130 pages. The main reason I was excited to get this key was because I wanted to setup my Apple phone or my banking accounts. Both in which this device does not support. The accounts I did try to setup I nee...

I received this product from Stellar Panel as a product review opportunity. I recently had a professional situation where my data was part of an attempted international breach. It left me feeling exposed and nervous. This device gave me the security and protection I needed to feel confident in my data system. The physical presence of the device makes me feel more comfor...

Simply plug in your YubiKey into your device's USB power source. It is easy to setup and begin using. Phishing occurs pretty often and the YubiKey will keep you protected once you have it plugged in and setup. This devic...

Very Useful for Security
I was excited to try YubiKey for my laptop. Given how much personal and professional data I have on my laptop I always liked the idea of double security authorization but was intimidated on where to start and worried it would be overly complicated to install set up and use. Not with the YubiKey! It’s a simple plug-in that is compatible with any usb-c outlet. It too...

Must have for extra security
This YubiKey 5C NFC has been a great addition to keeping my data secure. I'm not the most knowledgeable about technology but my husband is a software engineer and I had him help me set this up. He has had no issues with using it but for me there's definitely been a learning curve with using it. And I still am getting more familiar with it so if you're like me and not...

The Yubikey 5C NFC was a score! Compact and easy to bring along. The device is sturdy and I havent had any connection issues. The convenience of having a hardware MFA key has made things much easier for my husband and I. We can both utilize the key to securely access our accounts.
