Yubico Security Keys

Updated

Physical security keys add phish-proof protection to your Google account. Once you have been given a security key, you will not need to use one-time codes from Google Authenticator or text messages.

We recommend testing your security key after you receive it to confirm that it is set up correctly and working as expected, but you are not required to re-authenticate on devices where you are already signed in.

Sign into Google with a Security Key

Use these instructions when logging into Google or Google-SSO enabled apps, such as NetSuite, VPN, and KnowBe4.

  1. Enter your username and password, as usual
  2. Computers: when prompted, plug the key into your computer and touch the gold circle on your key to activate

    Phones: when prompted, hold the YubiKey near the top of your phone to activate

Lost or Stolen Security Keys

If you loose your security key or it is stolen, please contact helpdesk immediately. Your old key will be deactivated and you will be issued a replacement.
