Winkeo-A FIDO2
Winkeo-A FIDO2 is a USB Type-A security key for a strong authentication on the web and the cloud. It is compatible with FIDO2 (CTAP 2.0) and FIDO U2F standards. As a result, it offers a very high level of security while remaining easy to use. It thus protects your access from “phishing” attacks or password theft.
USB-A security key with smart card component
Credential generation, management and storage inside the smart card
Ease of use
(no software installation on the client workstation)
Anti-Phishing protection
(in order to replace vulnerable SMS, OTP or TOTP solutions)
The Winkeo-A FIDO2 security Key conforms to the FIDO2 and FIDO U2F specifications of the FIDO Alliance. The FIDO protocol relies on architectures based on asymmetric cryptography. It consists of using a pair of private/public keys. The private key never leaves the Winkeo-A FIDO2 device.
The FIDO2 standard allows authentication without a password in complete security. You have just to insert the Winkeo-A FIDO2 key into your computer’s USB port, enter your PIN and press the button to authenticate yourself. Winkeo-A FIDO2 easily replaces your password. It is compatible with Windows 10 / 11 and Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). It is also compatible with the FIDO U2F standard which allows double authentication to your online accounts: social networks, webmails, 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 Winkeo-A 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).
