# Security Keys (U2F)
|
|
|
|
**Authelia** also offers authentication using Security Keys supporting U2F
|
|
like [Yubikey](Yubikey) USB devices. U2F is one of the most secure
|
|
authentication protocol and is already available for Google, Facebook, Github
|
|
accounts and more.
|
|
|
|
The protocol requires your security key being enrolled before authenticating.

|
|
|
|
To do so, select the *Security Key* method in the second factor page and click
|
|
on the *register new device* link. This will send a link to the
|
|
user email address. This e-mail will likely be sent to https://mail.example.com:8080/
|
|
if you're testing Authelia and you've not configured anything.
|
|
|
|
Confirm your identity by clicking on **Continue** and you'll be asked to
|
|
touch the token of your security key to enroll.

|
|
|
|
Upon successful registration, you can authenticate using your security key by simply
|
|
touching the token again.
|
|
|
|
Easy, right?!

## FAQ
|
|
|
|
### Why don't I have access to the *Security Key* option?
|
|
|
|
U2F protocol is a new protocol that is only supported by recent browser
|
|
and must even be enabled on some of them like Firefox. Please be sure
|
|
your browser supports U2F and that the feature is enabled to make the
|
|
option available in **Authelia**.
