Instead, both keys need to be registered separately to the account, and then either can be used to authenticate with.
It's important to note that keys are not linked together in any way. So you can follow the same setup instructions listed in our Works with YubiKey Catalog. To see which security protocols the services you use support, you can check our Works with YubiKey Catalog.įor any services that use Yubico OTP or FIDO security protocols, you'll just need to register the second key exactly as you registered the first. There are a few ways to register a spare key/backup, and the process is different depending on if the service supports Yubico OTP and FIDO security protocols, or OATH-TOTP protocol. In general, the process of creating a backup involves manually registering the spare key with all services the first is registered with. Please note that for security reasons, the firmware of our products does not allow stored secrets to be read, meaning it is not possible to “clone” or "duplicate" a YubiKey. This way, one key can be used as a primary key, and the other can be used as a spare. If you’re using one of the best Android phones, your passkeys will be securely synced through Google Password Manager though Google plans to add support for any password manager that supports passkeys in future versions of Android.We at Yubico always recommend having more than one YubiKey.

Once on-device encryption is enabled in Chrome, you’ll be able to create new passkeys and use them to sign into any site or app that supports them. If these caveats aren’t a deal breaker, this is how passkeys work in Chrome along with some tips to help you get started. You will also need to enter your Google password to unlock your passwords on every new device you use. Also, some of the sites and apps you regularly use won’t be able to sign you in automatically. For instance, once on-device encryption is set up, it can’t be removed. While you may be eager to try out passkeys now that they’re supported in Chrome, enabling on-device encryption does come with several caveats.
