How good are Yubi Keys? - eviltoast

Hello I’m thinking about buying two Yubi Keys for my keepPassXc database but I just want to be sure they’re worth it before I buy them since two would cost a fair chunk of money ($100), can anyone recommend them?

Have a good day, -Sebo

    If you ask me then don’t bother buying them. Why? Because typing in your password to unlock your DB is still possible and afaik it cannot be turned off. Adding Yubikeys as additional option adds comfort but it’s an additional way for an intruder to unlock your DB. You want less options for an unauthorized person to unlock your DB for better security, not more.
