HYPERFIDO Pro MINI U2F/FIDO2/HOTP Security Key

This is a well priced FIDO2 key, usable in all FIDO2, WebAuthn, U2F type scenarios. It adds security and speed to account logins where services support these standards (too many don't yet - come on Amazon). This includes passwordless login where supported. Like many such keys it is not usable for Windows Hello login. Hypersecu could provide more information on their website to support new purchasers. I bought two of these keys. Please make sure you have a backup means of login. And don't expect it to have any storage (as some seem to expect). It is not a storage device, as clearly stated.

I got this much cheaper device to use as a back up for my Yubikey. Very easy to set up and get working and at a great price.

After 6 months of use I feel time to review. I bought this as a third backup for my yubikeys, and it has quickly become my main key. I use it log into numerous Google/Microsoft and other FIDO enabled logins on both Linux and Windows, the preferred method on my notebooks being pin + key. Some knowledge needed to set it up, it isn't 'plug and play', a little research should be enough to get most up and running. I like that its small enough to keep connected at home and easy to carry when I'm out and about.

At the time of writing, this appears to be the cheapest device of its kind available. The following functions are supported: * FIDO U2F * FIDO2 (The above make it functional with the WebAuthn standard) * HOTP (inputs via keyboard emulation when button pressed, appears to support a single profile for which the serial number and seed can be input via a very basic windows utility) The device is small and functional. It doesn't seem as solidly made as the competition, but then given it's something like 1/3rd the price you can and should have a backup key. One could potentially use a more expensive and solid key every day and register one of these cheap little things as a backup to leave somewhere secure. Overall it's good for the price. If you want try out physical security tokens, see how they workm, if they're right for you, etc before investing a lot of money then there isn't really any reason to wait - get one, try it, if you like it then use it as your backup device.

The device is recognised by Windows 10, during setup you see the LED flash. Pressing the button when told to stops it flashing. And then...... ... nothing. Completely ignored. It just sits there. No amount of locking will get the laptop to use the key rather than windows password. Remove this key and no different. It may as well not exist. Cheap it is. Useful it isn't, so it's going back.

Worked for microsoft and google mail accounts fine, speeds up security login. Brought one for myself and brother. I have used these before and are excellent to secure emails with a push of a button, over typing in several passwords or counting letters.

Works as intended. Supports FIDO and FIDO2 over USB. Build quality is fine for the price

At this price this FIDO2 gadget does everything you want. Perfect.
