A pin is a password, just a smaller easier one. Otherwise whether or not a PIN is prompted for is defined by the FIDO2 Webauthn user verification flag by the website developers.įucking hate this. Only if you're using the YubiKey for passwordless authentication (aka passkey) is a PIN mandatory. TBH, if you aren't doing passwordless login, you shouldn't also be prompted for a PIN during auth, that's just bad UX to have to enter two different memorized credentials.įIDO2 PINs can be defined within Windows Settings (look under sign in options), you can use the Yubico Manager, I think you can also use the Yubico Authenticator, and you can also define it within Chromium based browsers as well (during registration flows for example) If you are using the YubiKey for passwordless (aka passkey) login (ex Microsoft) you won't be prompted for username/password, you'll just be prompted for the PIN that you defined on your YubiKey.Ĭonversely, if you're logging into a service that support FIDO2 but isn't going to use your Yubikey for passwordless login (just strong 2FA), the developers of the website get to choose whether or not the website will prompt you for username/password as well as a PIN. Is there a way to force Yubikey to require PIN before using it? If I were to setup a PIN, could I do it thru brave browser or does it have to be in Yubico manager?ĭoes changing PIN affects the current websites services I already registered to?įrom what I read, requiring FIDO 2 PIN is decided by the website service.
If I decide to setup the initial PIN, would website that I have already registered to with the key, start to requiring PIN for 2FA? (Or do I have to re-register the website service to get the service to require PIN before use of yubikey 2FA) Resetting FIDO 2 PIN will invalidate all certificate of FIDO and FIDO2 previous registered in all website. It has a 8 max tries til it locks out and can only be reset.
I would really appreciate it.įIDO 2 PIN is required to have a password less login. I have went to several website including Yubico’s website but I just came out having more questions.
I’m not very clear about the regarding FIDO 2.
