Using the Security Key for Authentication

The FeiTian BioPass FIDO2 Security Key can be used for two primary authentication methods: FIDO2 (WebAuthn/CTAP) for passwordless or second-factor authentication, and FIDO U2F for traditional second-factor authentication.

• For FIDO2/WebAuthn: When prompted by a website or service to use your security key, insert the key into your computer's USB port. The website will then instruct you to touch the fingerprint sensor on the key. Upon successful fingerprint verification, you will be authenticated.
• For FIDO U2F: During a login process that requires U2F, after entering your username and password, you will be prompted to insert and touch your security key. Insert the key and touch the fingerprint sensor to complete the authentication.

Fingerprint Verification

The built-in sensor quickly verifies your fingerprint. Ensure your finger covers the entire sensor area for optimal recognition. The embedded security chip encrypts, stores, and protects your fingerprint data, ensuring it never leaves the secure element of the key.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your FeiTian BioPass FIDO2 Security Key, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Gently wipe the fingerprint sensor and the key's body with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the device.
• Storage: Store the key in a clean, dry environment away from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, and strong magnetic fields.
• Protection: While the key is designed to be durable, avoid dropping it or subjecting it to severe impacts. Keep the USB connectors free from dust and debris.
