Programmable hardware tokens for Office 365 - is self-service possible?
With NFC tokens, the provisioning is done by the IT person equipped with software and hardware that allows burning seeds onto programmable hardware tokens (i.e. an Android device with NFC, iPhone 8 or newer for “-i” models etc.). . However, we have many customers asking if this process can be done by end-users in a fully autonomous manner.
Multi-factor authentication for VPN systems, such as Meraki Client VPN or Fortinet VPN will be possible using FIDO Security keys, both FIDO2 and U2F.

Until around 2019, PayPal offered two-factor authentication security via SMS only. And while SMS 2FA is better than no 2FA at all, users wanted better protection. Now you can secure your PayPal account with a hardware token, by using Token2 programmable hardware token as a drop-in replacement of mobile authenticator apps.
About a year ago, we released Token2 Molto-1, the world's first programmable multi-profile hardware token. While Molto-1 is still the only solution of its kind currently available on the market, we will be soon releasing a new variation of a multi-profile hardware token, in a different form-factor and with a different set of features available.
Many customers are asking about the best practices on provisioning the programmable hardware tokens in situations when end-users are working remotely and cannot burn the tokens themselves, so IT support has to take care of the burning process. To remind, using programmable hardware tokens is the only way to have a hardware token for MFA if the user is not licensed for Azure AD Premium.
Token2 has developed a solution to automate the activation of imported hardware tokens with Azure MFA.
Today, we are presenting a new type of TOTP hardware tokens — USB Programmable token that displays the OTP value as a QR code and also can send the current OTP value over USB as a part of its HID emulation feature.
We have published integration guides for two popular products, Nextcloud and Fortinet
Token2 Molto-1-i can now be configured and provisioned using iOS, in addition to Android and Windows.
A detailed guide on how to use Token2 TOTP hardware tokens with ESET Secure Authentication solution was published.
TOKEN2 Companion app is a tool to leverage the use of TOKEN2 FIDO2 security keys (second-generation only, T2F2-ALU, and T2F2-NFC) beyond classic U2F and standard FIDO2/WebAuthn functionality.
Although Token2 tokens in dongle/keyfob form factor do have a hole to attach to a keyring, it is not possible to attach a keyring directly to the token and this is by design and on purpose.
Our first iOS-compatible token (model reference: “C301-i”) is currently being beta-tested and will start selling in a couple of months.
