Versasec Announces Partnership with Yubico

Yubico to Host Webinar with Its First Card Management System Vendor

New York, NY, June 28, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Versasec, the leader in smart card management systems, announced today it has partnered with Yubico, the leading provider of simple and open online identity protection. Versasec is Yubico's first Card Management System (CMS) partner and will announce support for Yubico's YubiKey in Versasec's next vSEC:CMS release later this month. Versasec and Yubico will host a webinar on July 13, 2016, 10:00 a.m. PT to discuss their joint solution.

The YubiKey is a USB hardware device that supports multiple authentication and encryption protocols, including smart card, OTP and FIDO Universal 2nd Factor (U2F).

YubiKeys work on Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux operating systems, and major browsers with no driver or client software needed.

"Yubico is a powerful force for enterprises, offering them a scalable solution that protects their corporate data and systems," said Joakim Thorén, CEO of Versasec.
