Hey everyone,

I am currently using an old(er) HYPERSECU FIDO key, USB-A with a button, and I am looking to

  • secure my phone as well (NFC) and, if possible
  • add biometric authentication to the mix.

Are there good alternatives or better: upgrades to the YubiKey which do support NFC as well as biometrics and come with a USB-C?

Thanks for your time ๐Ÿ‘‹

It's a question of what your privacy/security model is. I currently use Yubikey + Bitwarden with a strong main password. If I had to be paranoid, I'd sacrifice convenience for security, and carry a Trezor around.

Personally I think the yubikey fingerprint hardware key plus bit warden is an excellent combination even if you need to be very paranoid.
