YubiKey 5C NFC Security Key (Black/Gold, 2-Pack)

For professionals who demand both flexibility and uncompromising security, the YubiKey 5C NFC delivers multi-protocol authentication over USB-C and NFC in a single, durable key.

The black and gold two-pack ensures you have a backup key ready, whether for travel, disaster recovery, or a trusted colleague.

• Rugged design: IP68 water-resistant, crush-resistant, and made from reinforced fiberglass—no moving parts to fail.
• Touch sensor and LED indicator for user presence confirmation and visual status.
• No batteries required; the key is powered by the host device.

In daily use

Plug the YubiKey 5C NFC into any USB-C port to authenticate with a simple touch, or tap it against an NFC-enabled phone for passwordless login. It works seamlessly with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, and integrates with hundreds of services including Google, Microsoft, Salesforce, and password managers. The key stores credentials in a secure element, protecting against phishing and account takeovers. The included two keys let you enroll both as primary and backup, ensuring you are never locked out.
