What is a Security Key for Apple ID?

Using a security key for your Apple ID, you can add a layer of protection for your iPhone or other enabled iOS devices from phishing, hacking or social engineering scams. It is among the strongest methods of authenticating your account.

It is more reliable than verification codes sent via SMS during two-factor authentication (2FA). This is because unlike SMS, which can be intercepted, you can carry security keys wherever you go and they are difficult to breach.

Please note that the Cryptnox security key is available in card format alone. You can simply use it on your iPhone with NFC communication, or on a USB port via a compatible USB card reader, available in contact and contactless versions.
