Yubico Expands Enrolment Services to Accelerate Enterprises to Phishing Resistance and Passwordless
New enrollment options simplify user enrollment for YubiKeys, fast-tracking Microsoft and Ping Identity customers to passwordless authentication
New YubiKey enrollment services for passwordless security
Yubico (NASDAQ STOCKHOLM: YUBICO), a cybersecurity company and creator of the YubiKey, the most secure passkey, today at the RSA Conference announced the expansion of its Enrolment services, available exclusively through YubiKey as a Service, to include support for simple and secure in-the-field enrollment of YubiKeys for Microsoft and PingID environments. As a result, these expanded enrolment options help customers fast-track to phishing resistance and passwordless authentication. They also make it easier to customise and secure EntraID and PingOne PingID registration and account recovery.
Enroll app and SDK expand enterprise onboarding capabilities
As part of expanding the scope of Enrolment services, additionally, Yubico is introducing a new Enrolment app: YubiKey as a Service – Enroll, currently in Limited Early Access for Android users. During this phase, Yubico will gather feedback from enterprise customers. The final offering will be available as both a standalone app and an SDK. These capabilities give enterprises the components needed to build custom onboarding experiences. This helps IT and HR teams streamline user onboarding.
“As cyber attacks become more sophisticated, organisations are increasingly seeking faster ways to eliminate passwords and protect users from phishing-based credential theft,” said Albert Biketi, chief product and technology officer at Yubico. “The expansion of YubiKey as a Service, with these new Enrolment service options, makes it easier for IT or business line managers to easily enrol and recover YubiKeys for their users. It also gives organisations the flexibility to integrate YubiKey deployment directly into their existing workflows, fast-tracking passwordless adoption and strengthening security across the enterprise.”
Flexible enrollment options for enterprise deployment at scale
Organisations can choose the enrolment approach that best fits their needs. They can use a fully managed service, an app, or an SDK deployed on-site.
FIDO Pre-reg enables a fully managed passwordless rollout
A turnkey service that delivers pre-enrolled YubiKeys directly to employees, enabling passwordless login from day one. Yubico factory programs the keys with user credentials and ships them globally, reducing operational overhead for IT teams. Meanwhile, FIDO Pre-reg is currently generally available with Okta and Versasec, and in Early Access with Microsoft.
YubiKey Enrol app and SDK simplify user registration and recovery
In addition, Yubico’s enrollment service options also offer organisations a new, intuitive app called YubiKey as a Service – Enrol to quickly set up YubiKeys on behalf of users, such as new hires or existing employees. With an accompanying SDK, for example, organisations will be able to gain the tools to integrate user enrollment, registration, and account recovery directly into their existing business applications.
Now IT, HR, and onboarding teams can securely prepare and assign YubiKeys. This enables faster onboarding and rapid deployment of phishing-resistant authentication at scale. This service is now available in Limited Early Access for Microsoft and Ping Identity customers.
YubiEnroll CLI supports technical and rapid deployments
A free option that allows IT teams or partners to enrol YubiKeys on behalf of users and distribute them directly. YubiEnroll is a command-line interface tool meant purely for technical teams to enrol YubiKeys on short notice or in regions where turnkey delivery services may not be available.
Key capabilities of YubiKey enrollment services
Key capabilities of the new Enrolment services include:
- Secure setup from anywhere: Teams can prepare and assign YubiKeys without complex IT configuration, while Yubico handles secure backend provisioning.
- End-to-end encrypted enrolment: All information used to configure keys is securely encrypted, protecting against interception or tampering.
- Flexible delivery options: Organisations can ship keys directly or leverage logistics partners and distributors for global fulfilment.
- Full visibility and auditing: The platform automatically tracks enrolment and activation events to support compliance and operational oversight.
- Easy reassignment: Keys can be securely reset and reassigned when employees change roles or leave the organisation.
Scaling passwordless security across distributed workforces
Ultimately, by combining flexible enrolment options with hardware-backed phishing resistance, YubiKey as a Service enables organisations to quickly deploy secure authentication across distributed workforces while maintaining strong governance and operational control.
The YubiKey as a Service – Enrol app is now in Limited Early Access for Android users, and Yubico is actively gathering customer feedback to shape the final release. Meanwhile, the company is also preparing an SDK option. If you want to get involved, visit: https://www.yubico.com/products/enrollment/.
