PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwired) — 11/02/15 —

There is a movement in identity management focused intently on security that incorporates strong two-factor authentication.

At Oktane, Yubico will be highlighting the company–s partnership with Okta to integrate YubiKeys into its cloud identity ecosystem, which creates a foundation for secure connections between people and technology. Inclusion into Okta–s platform reaffirms the reputation of the YubiKey as a highly sought after authentication technology by many leading software providers and services.

“YubiKeys are now an option for stronger authentication as part of Okta–s Adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA),” said Jerrod Chong, vice president, Solutions Engineering, Yubico. “With this service, users are able to securely and easily authenticate with the YubiKey to Okta–s platform, which lets users authenticate once and access any number of applications.”

This single touch to activate a second factor makes YubiKey the preferred choice for users logging in from any device with a USB port.

YubiKeys offer a wide range of strong authentication options including one-time password (OTP), FIDO U2F, OpenPGP, PIV support and more. At Oktane, Yubico also will be highlighting the simplicity and usability of FIDO U2F login to Google, Dropbox, and GitHub accounts.
