“Strong user authentication is one of the primary areas federal agencies need to address as they look to modernize their security infrastructure to fit an increasingly cloud and mobile-first world," said Kiersten Todt, Managing Partner at Liberty Group Ventures and former Executive Director of the Presidential Commission on Enhancing National Cybersecurity. Duo’s industry standard methodology allows federal security officers to quickly add strong cryptographic authenticators, such as YubiKey, to applications that were previously difficult for the government to secure due to internal development requirements or third-party ownership. Yubico’s YubiKey hardware authentication device, recognized as the gold standard in login protection, combined with Duo’s cloud-based software, provides strong two-factor authentication (2FA) so federal employees and contractors can securely access agency data and applications on a traditional network or in the cloud. PALO ALTO, Calif., and ANN ARBOR, Mich., - MaCybersecurity leaders Yubico and Duo Security today announced a joint solution that allows government agencies and contractors to accelerate their IT modernization efforts while complying with the most stringent level of federal digital identity and authentication requirements, without added cost and complexity.
