Yubico Launches YubiID for Identity Verification Gap
Original title: Phishing-Resistant Isn't Enough; Yubico Takes Aim at Identity-Verification Gap
Yubico's new subscription service bridges identity verification with credential enrollment and recovery across platforms like Microsoft Entra and Okta.
Yubico unveiled YubiID at its YubiNation conference, a service that integrates identity verification with credential management for existing identity platforms. The offering addresses gaps in phishing-resistant authentication by confirming the right person receives credentials and legitimate owners request replacements. It supports major providers including Microsoft Entra, Okta, and Ping, and is expected to be generally available in the first half of 2027.
- Integrates with Microsoft Entra, Okta, and Ping.
- Supports credential enrollment on YubiKeys and phones.
