Getting Started with Your FIDO2 SecureKey™

Register and Authenticate to Websites

Using your new security key for web based FIDO2 authentication is as easy as 1-2-3.

Step 1: Login

Open your web browser and access your desired application that supports two-step authentication (ie Facebook, GSuite)

Step 2: Register

Follow the step-by-step instructions that are provided to register your FIDO2 key

In most instances this information is located under the “Security” tab on the website; you can access detailed instructions for your desired web service by navigating to our “Works with uTrust FIDO” page and clicking on “View Docs”, or going to the application website and searching for their FIDO/FIDO2 security key registration instructions. (as in the image below).

Step 3: Success

Carry your uTrust FIDO2 Security Key for strong authentication wherever you go!

For additional information, view our uTrust FIDO2 Security Key FAQ page.

Hirsch recommends enrolling a second uTrust FIDO2 security key as a backup in the event your primary security key fails. Having a backup key may prevent you from being locked out of your account.
