Easy deployment. Quick login.
There are only three simple steps to deploying a SpearID® FIDO2 authentication key. Best of all - all these steps are very similar for all supported services (e.g. Google services).
The registration process begins by adding the SpearID® FIDO2 security key to your account. In the settings of your supported online service user account, there is a section called “Two-Factor Authentication” where you can add the “security key” (or security token).
Registration takes place by connecting the SpearID® FIDO2 key to the computer's USB port and pressing the small key button on the stick. For NFC proximity reading, the key must be pressed against the back of the smartphone with the USB reading surface folded open (about 3s).
After successful registration, SpearID® FIDO2 keys can be assigned a service-specific name to distinguish them from other security keys. Several services also offer the option of adding a PIN to the security key.
⚠️ Note! You should add a PIN code to the FIDO key, as some services require it to work correctly.
Two ways to connect
SpearID® FIDO2 offers two different user interfaces on the same device: a USB connector for a computer and an NFC proximity reader for a smartphone.
