If your organization has enabled FIDO Universal 2nd Factor for multi-factor authentication, when logging in you will have the opportunity to authenticate using a certificate that is linked to your Yubikey device as a second factor. If multi-factor authentication is optional for your account, you do not need to use this method. However, if multi-factor authentication using FIDO Universal 2nd Factor is required, you must have a Yubikey device issued to you and authenticate using that device before gaining access to your resources.
