Ever tried to unlock the screen of GNU/Linux, with a YubiKey USB, in KDE, password-less?

Maybe because you are in front of a wide audience and you cannot type a passphrase in front of cameras / eyes?

Here guide! You're welcome!

Unlock screen in KDE with Yubikey in Debian 13 trixie (U2F)

I've obtained a Yubikey 5, and I've successfully configured it to login into my Debian GNU/Linux 13 trixie, following this guide: https://support.yubico.com/s/article/Ubuntu-Linux-login-guide-U2F (...

@rjayasinghe an diesem Thema bin ich auch gerade dran. Im Vorfeld habe ich mir allerdings noch zwei #Yubikey bestellt.

Yubikey is an absolute treat. Newly installed everything on my pop os cosmic laptop and I signed in to everything with a yubikey. No hassle of passwords much. What a seamless experience!

To contrast Paypal with Cloudflare, this is how you do it correctly.

I was able to enroll all three of my hardware keys ( @nitrokey , @yubico , and Token2) without issue. No one key limits and no being forced into software backups.

When a platform actually respects FIDO2 as a standard, you can have true hardware redundancy.

Of course, I will mention all of this in my upcoming security key series.

Today's nerd activity: my new YubiKeys have arrived in the mail, so I'm conducting a risk assessment of my most frequently used online accounts, adding the hardware keys, and for the most critical accounts, planning to replace the TOTP codes in my password manager with hardware TOTP.

Der #Yubikey Support bei #Mailbox_org soll "irgendwann" wieder kommen. Bis dahin kann man #TOTP nutzen, ich denke das kann man gelten lassen. Im gegensatz zu #Proton gibt es dort auch kein Problem mit Kontakten und Kalender, das freut die Familie. 😀

Today I thought, what if I take the nix flake I use to manage my dotfiles and machine setup, and just make an ISO out of it, and then flash it onto a USB stick. I can now basically plug in my "full setup" in any computer I happen to find anywhere.

My SSH, AGE and GPG keys are on my Yubikey. I literally bring up a pinentry dialogue as soon as desktop-session starts (Hyprland), which uses my Yubikey to decrypt secrets, and connect to my Tailnet using an Auth Key.

Set up GPG signing keys, SSH keys, AGE keys on my new YubiKeys. Really really nice process. 9/10 would recommend.

Vettem egy YubiKeyt 😄 Egyelőre csak a jelszókezelőhöz van bekötve, de kíváncsi vagyok, ti mire használjátok még. Tippek jöhetnek! #yubikey #security

I am raising $50 to pick up a pair of open-source security keys (SoloKeys or Nitrokey). I'd love to do a review or series about these!

The Mission: Kill off SMS based 2FA and move to hardware backed FIDO2 for my desktop and Proxmox logins. It is time to move my security away from a SIM card and into my own hands.

Testing Password Managers: Moving on from KeePassXC + Syncthing (it has served me well but can be fickle) to try out Proton Pass, which also supports hardware keys. I also had good experiences from Bitwarden and VaultWarden.

Which do you prefer for Linux?   

I would greatly appreciate any support of the goal here: https://ko-fi.com/terminaltilt/goal?g=0

I also have a LibrePay (which is much more privacy respecting) here: https://liberapay.com/terminaltilt/donate
