Watch the LED when you put your finger on the sensor. The key has a red and a green LED, indicating failed or successful fingerprint verification.
The fingerprint module prevents any misuses of the token from people other than authorized user and this little key can store up to 50 fingerprints!. The key looks great, comes in both USB A and C, and to me, it feels rock solid! I was concerned that the Security key would wiggle in my USB port when trying to authenticate using my fingerprint but it responds to a very light touch and lightning quick! You don’t have to push down risking damage to your USB port.
Here’s my first impression for the all metal FEITIAN BioPass FIDO2 security key. I’ve used FEITIAN products before and in a previous post I wrote about OATH TOTP Hardware tokens with Azure MFA using the C200 TOTP token. A big thank you goes out to Della Han from “ FEITIAN Technologies Co., Ltd.” For providing the security keys for testing. In this post, I’ll be using the FEITIAN BioPass (Biometric Security key) with the build-in fingerprint sensor. There are many vendors that offer FIDO2 security keys and If you want to know which are compatible with Azure and Microsoft 365, have a look at this site. Which FIDO2 keys support passwordless authentication with Windows 10 and Azure AD? It’s goal is to create strong authentication by reducing the use of passwords.
I’ll keep it short The FIDO (Fast Identity Online) alliance promotes open authentication standard. Google FIDO2 for more info or have a look here. And other web apps/services that support FIDO2.Azure AD joined or Hybrid joined Windows 10 devices.Microsoft 365 web apps using a supported browser.With a Security key you can log in passwordless to: This blog is all about going passwordless with FIDO2 security keys. Microsoft Azure supports the following passwordless options Lets start with the basics Passwordless authentication is any form of authentication that doesn’t require the user to provide a password (obviously)to sign-in to Windows 10 or any service on the web. I’ll end with some final thoughts and thing to remember.Then we’ll see what the user experience is like.The second part of this post covers the administrator actions to configure passwordless authentication with Windows 10 and Azure AD.First we’ll cover the basics, and I’ll review the FEITIAN BioPass FIDO2 Security key.With this blog, I hope you’ll learn more about passwordless authentication and how to get started. Some System administrators are concerned about difficult time consuming configuration changes and user adoption challenges. I guess there is still a lot of mystery around going passwordless. While passwordless authentication with Windows 10 and Azure AD is possible for quite some time, many organizations still use older and less secure authentication methods.
