More Security for Everyone – WebAuthn Now Available as a New Second Factor! 🔐

WebAuthn Now Available as a Second Factor – Use YubiKey or Smartphone for Maximum Protection. Giveaway Included!

Security is our top priority – and from now on, we're introducing WebAuthn as our new second factor. That means: All our employees are now using YubiKeys – the most advanced and secure method against phishing and unauthorized access. And the best part: You can now use this secure authentication method too!

What is WebAuthn?

WebAuthn is the new gold standard for two-factor authentication. No more typing in codes – just plug in your YubiKey or scan it via NFC, and you're securely logged in. The best part? WebAuthn is phishing-proof, faster, and more convenient than traditional authenticators like the Authenticator App with its six-digit one-time passwords.

Thanks to its binding to the domain, WebAuthn is also protected against man-in-the-middle attacks – stealing or forwarding codes is no longer possible.

💡 Tip: Don’t have a YubiKey? No problem! In Google Chrome, you can also use WebAuthn with your smartphone. This turns your phone into a secure login key – simple and just as safe.

More Security for Our Customers

This new second factor is now available to all our customers too! Want to make your accounts even more secure? Just activate WebAuthn and use your own YubiKey – or your smartphone.
