USB-C security key compatible with FIDO2 (CTAP 2.0)
Credential generation, management and storage inside the smart card
Easy to use and to deploy
(no software installation on the client workstation)
Anti-Phishing protection
(in order to replace vulnerable solutions based on one-time passwords or OTP)
The Winkeo2-C FIDO2 USB-C security key complies with the FIDO2 and FIDO U2F specifications of the FIDO Alliance. The FIDO2 and FIDO U2F standards rely on architectures based on asymmetric cryptography and electronical certificates.
The FIDO2 standard enables secure, passwordless authentication. Simply insert the Winkeo2-C FIDO2 key into your computer’s USB port, enter your PIN, and press the button to authenticate. The Winkeo2-C FIDO2 key thus easily replaces your password. It is compatible with Windows 10 / 11 and Microsoft Entra ID. It is also compatible with the FIDO U2F standard, which allows two-factor authentication for your online accounts: social networks, webmail, e-commerce sites, online banks, etc.
Moreover, the security key contains a smart card component certified Common Criteria EAL5+. The implementation of the FIDO standard as well as the integration of a highly secure smart card component thus guarantee a very high level of security.
The Winkeo2-C FIDO2 security key was proven and recognized as reliable by ANSSI (the French National Cybersecurity Agency ) and received the Security visa in 2022 (Certificate ANSSI-CSPN-06/2022). In addition, NEOWAVE is a Microsoft partner for its passwordless authentication solutions (FIDO2).
