Rutronik
Secure access to web applications
With iShield FIDO2, Swissbit offers a strong and, according to the provider, simple, secure and flexible authentication option.
Here, hardware-based, asymmetric private/public key cryptography is used instead of password-based authentication and single chip security keys. This protects against online attacks such as phishing, social engineering or account takeovers. In addition to more secure functionality, the iShield FIDO2 from Swissbit (available from Rutronik) enables flexible verification options such as single-factor authentication (without a password), 2FA or MFA. The all-in-one security key is based on open standards and works with all FIDO2-compatible websites and services, including passwordless login to a Windows 10 desktop. The dimensions of the key are 51.5 mm x 18.5 mm x 6 mm. The thermoplastic polyamide housing makes it waterproof and robust. It is compatible with CCID smartcard and FIDO2 HID devices. A touch sensor on the back enables touch-and-go authentication via NFC.
