Description The YubiKey 5 Cryptographic Module (the module) is a single-chip module validated at FIPS 140-3 Security Level 2. The module is a secure element that supports multiple protocols designed to be embedded in USB and/or NFC security tokens. The module can generate, store, and perform cryptographic operations for sensitive data and can be utilized via an external touch-button for Test of User Presence in addition to PIN for smart card authentication. The module implements several major functions - FIDO, PIV-compatible smart card, OpenPGP smart card, OATH authentication, Security Domain, and YubiHSM Auth.

Automated analysis

Automated inference - use with caution

All attributes shown in this section (e.g., links between certificates, products, vendors, and known CVEs) are generated by automated heuristics and have not been reviewed by humans. These methods can produce false positives or false negatives and should not be treated as definitive without independent verification. This applies equally to the Cross-references section below. If you want to know more about how this data is computed and how reliable it is, see our documentation on automated analysis. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or harmful, please submit feedback.

No automatically derived data are available in this section.
