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...

Useful and secure
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...

Protection When You Need It
Scams have become so common and frequent in this time of day. Why not keep your accounts protected with a tool that can fit into the palm of your hand. 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...

Easy to Use Security Key
This came to me at such a perfect time. I'm currently handling a lot of sensitive information from work as an owner and I'm constantly jumping from different computers other than my phone. All of my accounts require extra security and this item makes everything a breeze. Registering the device was very straight forward and took less than 5 minutes. The key lives on my k...

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...

Secure and easy way to store passwords
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. Comparing the Yubikey to other MFA keys that we’ve used I would say definitely go with t...

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...

Durable Security
Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for giving me the YubiKey 5c NFC security device. It is a strong security authenticator that is easy to set up and use. It has a USB-C connector and the NFC feature that can be used with smartphones and tablets. If the USB-C and NFC cannot be used an adapter could be used with it. I like that it is water-resistant crush-r...

As part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel I received the YubiKey 5C NFC. The instructions are easy to follow and it is compatible with many services such as Facebook Reddit and Instagram. After first inserting the key into any USB port it was ready to go. I first used the key with my Facebook app on my phone. The set up instructions were steep but step and easy ...

Great but mostly for professionals
This little key is awesome. It's well built feels tough and works wonderfully. It takes a few minutes to get it set up and can be confusing compared to using an authenticator app but once it's set up it works flawlessly. There are a lot of services that are compatible with the key which is also nice. My biggest complaint is that it feels more for professionals. Ye...

Convenient MFA key on the go
I received this as a part of a Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was excited about the idea of having an additional hardware based MFA key handy. With the increase in online phishing it’s always important to protect my identity and accounts at all costs. It came with minimal packaging so I was very optimistic that this was going to be a quick plug and play type of situat...
