OneLogin: Setup Yubikey

YUBiKey:

The YubiKey is a device that makes multi-factor authentication as simple as possible. Instead of a code being sent via SMS text or generated by an app on your phone, you press a button on your YubiKey upon logging in. Each device has a unique code built on it, which is used to verify the login is authentic.  These YubiKeys are optional and not provided by the University or ITS. 

YubiKey Options

• All 5 series options: https://www.yubico.com/product/yubikey-5-series/yubikey-5c-nfc/
• Cheaper options that work with WebAuthn (FIDO only): https://www.yubico.com/product/security-key-series/security-key-c-nfc-by-yubico-black/
• You can also purchase both options on Amazon.com
