ybWin Preview
Today we’ll introduce our latest project (codename Yubiii) which is still under development, but really close to a public preview release. It’s aimed to allow Windows Log On, Computer Unlock, and other features to be enhanced with YubiKey OTP strong authentication abilities. Hardened security at Enterprise level, or even at home is a well desired goal since recent few years for both technicians and senior managers. Now, by using YubiKey OTP and Two-factor Authentication, we got an access key to the Computer assets which drives this goal to more achievable level than ever.
Next, we are going to show you the administrative tool which was used to configure and link a YubiKey to my Windows User account. This tool (codename GineConsole) will be part of Yubico Tools, together with Yubiii itself. There are several options on About tab as well; remember this is a preview sneak-peak, and User Interface will probably be updated, if not for sure. Anyway, I think it looks nice even now.
Oh! Probably you have noticed it but I am going to say it anyway – all settings will be made fully manageable through Administrative Template (Domain admins are welcome!) Enjoy!
Hi, just wondering where this project is at, in relation to a testing release? I own a few yubikeys, and would be more than willing to test and contribute! My experience is generally geared more towards PHP/SQL but I’d be willing to help in any way I could
Followwing on from Adam’s query – this is an interesting idea, and I’m wondering what stage development has reached.
A bit late, but here is some info: http://www.5group.com/wordpress/2011/10/01/ybwin-status-update/
