Yubico Authenticator

Cross-platform application for generating Open Authentication (OATH) time-based TOTP and event-based HOTP one-time password codes, with the help of a YubiKey that protects the shared secrets.

Features

  • Add a credential by scanning a QR code on the screen

  • Favorite your most frequently used credentials for easy access

  • Keep your secret seeds safe by storing them on a YubiKey

  • Require a touch on the YubiKey to generate the code

  • Protect your credentials with a device password

  • Connect an external smart card reader and use the YubiKey over NFC

Supported devices

Usage of this software requires a compatible YubiKey. Yubico Authenticator is capable of provisioning and using both slot-based credentials (compatible with any YubiKey that supports OTP) and the more powerful standalone OATH functionality found on the NEO, YubiKey 4 and YubiKey 5 series. To use the standalone OATH functionality your YubiKey must have the CCID mode enabled, which can be done by using the YubiKey Manager.

Installation

Downloads for all supported operating systems are available on the Yubico Authenticator release page.

System Requirements

The following operating systems are supported. The application may still run on other platforms.

  • Windows 8.1 or later

  • macOS High Sierra 10.13 or later

  • Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or later

On Linux systems, make sure the pcscd service is installed and running.

CLI

Looking for a command line option? That is available in the YubiKey Manager CLI with the ykman oath commands.
