USB Key Management

USB keys can only be issued to user accounts with USB key authentication enabled in multifactor verification.

Before using a USB key for second authentication, prepare USB keys and install the USB key driver on the local computer. A USB key from a vendor cannot be identified by other vendors for login authentication. So, the vendor must be specified for each USB key. For details, see Configuring USB Keys.
