Why request this service?

This service is designed to facilitate the distribution of YubiKeys for utilization by faculty and staff based on proven needs and business use cases.  

Faculty and staff should request this service if the current two-factor authentication (2FA) options are:

• Inadequate for their specific business needs
• Required for access to external portals,
• Negatively impact user experience to an extreme degree,
• Are technically infeasible, or for similar reasons.

In all cases, please provide the appropriate justification for the request. If the justification for the specific request is denied, the department can still purchase a YubiKey for that user by completing this service request.

What are the features of this service?

Faculty and Staff, upon approval, will receive a YubiKey from TAC.

Who can request this service?

Faculty/Staff, IT Administrators, Students engaged in research, teaching, work-study, or work assistance. 

Are there any fees or additional costs?

All requests will be reviewed by IT Security before approval. Any approved YubiKey service request may require payment from the requestor's department, namely when the justification for the YubiKey is solely based on personnel preferences.  All departments that purchase a YubiKey will retain that key and can reuse it for another user. 

USB-A for $50.00

USB-C for $55.00
