Cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure and data are an issue facing every industry, and any critical systems and applications that aren\u2019t protected by phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) creates a security threat gap.<\/p>\n<p>Closing the gap requires the highest levels of security where most threats emerge\u2014at the human layer. Look no further, the phishing-resistant YubiKey protects your people, data, and technology against phishing attacks and account takeovers.

Organizations worldwide are deploying YubiKeys to ensure secure user access to business networks, data, applications, and to reduce operating costs. YubiKeys help organizations across industries and the government secure their employees, customers, and supply chains against cyberthreats, enabling them to drive regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n<p>Yubico\u2019s Professional Services team can provide technical and operational guidance to help streamline your YubiKey implementation and rollout with services mapped to your needs.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some of the key best practices we recommend to help you accelerate your organization\u2019s deployment of phishing-resistant MFA.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11354 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/dtasiagroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/yubikey2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"511\" height=\"410\" \/><\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b><\/b><strong><b>Planning: Covering all angles <\/b><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As a first step, it\u2019s best to develop a phased approach to ensure a frictionless deployment of YubiKeys. A holistic plan that clearly identifies all users and use cases for phishing resistant MFA across your entire organization and supply chain is a must. A successful deployment also involves a variety of roles and responsibilities such as technical implementation tasks, lifecycle management, and operational components such as training, support, launch and reporting. Examples of key process questions include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What are your users\u2019 needs, behaviors and risk profiles?<\/li>\n<li>Have you included all appropriate departments in planning meetings for your YubiKey deployment journey?<\/li>\n<li>Do you have cross-functional alignment?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><b><\/b><strong><b>Lifecycle Management: Empowering users with YubiKeys <\/b><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Yubico makes it very convenient to get phishing-resistant MFA directly into the hands of your employees and supply chain vendors to increase security and improve productivity. Through services such as YubiEnterprise Subscription which provides a service-based and affordable model for purchasing YubiKeys, and YubiEnterprise Delivery which provides a turnkey distribution service, Yubico can help you get YubiKeys to anywhere you need them. Key questions to ask as you prepare to distribute and manage your YubiKeys:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Where are most of your users located\u2014in-office, remote or hybrid?<\/li>\n<li>How will users, especially remote users, receive the YubiKey?<\/li>\n<li>How will you manage lost keys?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once your users have their YubiKeys, the next step involves registering the keys with the applications and devices they will use. We recommend that each user has a second YubiKey as a backup, and if users cannot locate a YubiKey, revoking and replacing keys is the recommended next step. If a user leaves the organization, some organizations retrieve YubiKeys prior to their departure while others prefer to allow departing users to keep their YubiKeys and continue using it for their own personal accounts.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><b><\/b><strong><b>Training &amp; Support: Spreading awareness <\/b><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The next important step is effective education and awareness, in order to showcase to your user community why the company invested in the YubiKey, and the direct benefits to users. The YubiKey\u2019s simple user experience requires minimal training and on-going support for users. However, should users require additional guidance, there are a variety of training approaches, including in-person and virtual webinars, and how-to videos that can be utilized. Key questions to ask:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How will you train and support users?<\/li>\n<li>Do you have a communication plan with accessible assets that will help support users?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><b><\/b><strong><b>Reporting &amp; Launch: Evaluate for lift-off <\/b><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>After a comprehensive plan is created, it\u2019s also important to map out the various metrics that will be beneficial to capture to show success, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Number of keys distributed<\/li>\n<li>Number of users activated<\/li>\n<li>Applications enabled<\/li>\n<li>Security threats mitigated<\/li>\n<li>Reduction in password reset-related IT support calls<\/li>\n<li>Productivity related to user log-in times<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Having clear visibility through reports, or even by conducting user surveys can provide extra clarity back to the business.
