Kensington announced the expansion of its VeriMark security portfolio with the launch of two new NFC+ hardware security keys: VeriMark NFC+ USB-C Security Key and VeriMark NFC+ USB-A Security Key. Both models are FIDO2 Level 2 certified and support the latest FIDO CTAP 2.1 protocol, delivering enterprise-grade, phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication and passwordless login protection across modern cloud and web-based services. As credential theft, phishing attacks, and password reuse continue to drive data breaches, organizations are accelerating the adoption of hardware-based authentication aligned with zero-trust security frameworks. Kensington's VeriMark NFC+ security keys eliminate password vulnerabilities by leveraging public-key cryptography and requiring a physical tap via USB or NFC to authenticate legitimate login attempts.
