As we have promised, the Yubikey Tools set has been updated and is available for downloading right away. It contains (for now) only two tools – one for Yubikey validation testing (primary for developers, and protocol debugging), and another for automatic workstation locking (once Yubikey is unplugged).
A new addition to the collection is under way. AutoLock will remember your Yubikey and lock out the computer once the device is removed. You will have to Logon to Windows in order to unlock the computer. AutoLock will continue to work in background, waiting for your Yubikey arrival, and will start monitoring it again. Coming soon…
Couple of weeks ago we got some Yubikeys and some lucky of us are already using them. Meanwhile a new set of tools is coming around the corner – Yubikey Tools – and their first member is available for downloading right away. If you are lucky too, and you got your new Yubikey, grab this little application to play with it.
This tool has been built as a proof of concept, that Yubikey Validation could be done easily with Borland Delphi. We have created a Library for rapid application development supporting OTP (One-time-password) validation on Yubico’s Validation Servers. It will be used for future Yubikeys Tools development, and will be released to the public soon.
