Core numbers at a glance

Stronger logins without passwords

This key supports FIDO2 and CTAP 2.1 for modern, passwordless sign-in. Because it uses biometric matching on the device, your fingerprint data never leaves the key. In practice, this gives fast, consistent access with fewer steps. It also helps meet common security policies and privacy rules.

Cross-platform and browser coverage

It works across major platforms and services, including Google, Meta and Microsoft. You can use it with Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari for flexible daily workflows. So whether you work on a desktop or laptop, the same key handles sign-in. That consistency reduces the need for multiple security tools.

360° readability and anti-spoofing

Match-in-Sensor™ technology provides 360° fingerprint reading and built-in spoof detection. The key delivers a low false rejection rate of 2% and a false acceptance rate of 0.001%. Because the match happens in-sensor, it resists common attack methods. This gives you confidence in every authentication event.

Tap-and-Go simplicity for FIDO U2F

For services that support FIDO U2F, you get quick Tap-and-Go authentication. This removes the need to type codes or carry extra tokens. So your second factor becomes a simple, secure tap. It speeds up sign-in while keeping protection strong.

Compact form with protective cap

The key is compact and easy to carry, with a protective cap for everyday use. Its USB-C connection suits modern laptops and docks. Because it is lightweight, it fits well in a bag or pocket. You get a durable, travel-ready security tool.

Privacy and compliance ready

The design supports privacy and security regulations, including GDPR, BIPA and CCPA. We know this matters for UK teams handling personal data. Because authentication stays on-device, it aligns with data minimisation principles. It is a practical choice for compliant workflows.
