Yubico – Security keys and strong authentication
SYNEDAT plans Yubico security keys for services, devices and user groups. Alongside technical sign-in we address issuance, replacement, support and access revocation throughout the lifecycle.
Which product family fits your needs?
YubiKey 5 Series
Cover multiple authentication methods with an appropriate key model. SYNEDAT checks protocols, connectors and application configuration.
Security Key Series
Plan FIDO authentication for supported services. We compare requirements with this series and test enrollment and use.
YubiKey Bio Series
Assess biometric user verification for suitable scenarios. SYNEDAT considers setup, fallback methods and workplace support.
YubiHSM 2
Plan application cryptographic key protection separately. We check integration, permissions and recovery; an HSM serves a different purpose from a personal sign-in key.
License scope, availability, term and support are reviewed for your project and specified in the quote.
Where the solution adds value
Protect administrative access with security keys
SYNEDAT tests identity providers and administration services with a small group. Sign-in, spare keys and controlled emergency access are tested together.
Manage keys throughout employment
We define assignment, personal enrollment, replacement and revocation on departure. Support receives documented steps for damaged or lost keys.
What matters when choosing
- Identities and privileges
- Employees, administrators, service accounts and partners have different access needs. We define roles and approvals for the relevant systems.
- Protocols and devices
- FIDO2, certificates, SAML or RADIUS must fit the application. For security keys, USB connectors, NFC and supported platforms also matter.
- Lifecycle and recovery
- We plan issuance, enrollment, loss, revocation and emergency access. This simplifies rollout and avoids unresolved exceptions during operations.
From selection to deployment
Define requirements and objectives
We review systems, users, security requirements and budget. The result is a reasoned selection with a defined scope.
Validate suitability in a pilot
For an agreed pilot, we define tests, acceptance criteria and responsibilities. You receive a documented basis for the investment decision.
Plan rollout and operations
We plan migration, configuration, handover and support together. Scope and responsibilities are agreed before rollout.

Questions to help you decide
Does every YubiKey series support every method?
No. Series and models differ in methods, connectors and features. SYNEDAT checks the application and intended model before procurement.
How is access recovered after losing a key?
A predefined recovery path with identity verification is required. SYNEDAT plans spare keys or approved alternatives and revocation of the lost registration.
How do MFA and privileged access management differ?
MFA strengthens sign-in with additional factors. PAM controls privileged permissions, credentials and, where supported, sessions. They can complement each other and are planned around your applications.
How do we start using security keys?
We first check applications and identity providers. A pilot group tests sign-in, spare keys and recovery. Issuance, enrollment and support can then be standardized for more users.
Can I request a demo or pilot first?
Yes. Tell us your intended use case. We will discuss available evaluation options, prerequisites, effort and acceptance criteria. A pilot is agreed separately before it starts.
What does SYNEDAT need for a quote?
Useful details include product family, deployment location, current systems, user or device count and target date. We clarify open points together and distinguish the product, implementation and ongoing services in the quote.
Can SYNEDAT help with rollout and ongoing operations?
We agree the services you need, such as architecture, integration, migration, documentation or operational support. Vendor support, response times and ongoing assistance are explicitly defined in the agreed scope.
