Setting up passwordless logins and 2FA

Hideez Key – Passwordless authentication and 2FA

Once you have paired Hideez Key with your devices, you can set up passwordless authentication or two-factor authentication on websites supporting FIDO U2F and FIDO2 standards.

FIDO specifications are currently supported by Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Apple Safari web browsers.

You will need to enable the passwordless sign-in method with a security key for each app and website you want to use it with.

Follow the steps below to enable FIDO U2F authentication:

1) Log into the account you would like to use your Hideez Key with and navigate to Security settings.

2) Typically, there is an option for enabling 2FA and registering your security key. Follow the on-screen instructions to register the key.
