Yubico, a cybersecurity company, inventor of FIDO passkeys and creator of the YubiKey, the most secure passkey, has announced the opening of its third global headquarters in Singapore. This announcement reinforces Yubico’s long-term commitment to the Asia Pacific region and builds on its role in advancing open authentication standards, while shaping a safer digital world for all. The new office complements Yubico’s existing global headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden and Santa Clara, USA, reflecting its strategy to serve a growing international user base by helping customers deploy YubiKeys at scale to adapt to a rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape.
“As the digital economy grows, there’s a decisive shift across Asia Pacific, where organisations are moving beyond legacy Multi-Factor Authentication to meet rigorous new national regulations for identity protection,” said Jerrod Chong, Acting CEO at Yubico, a Singaporean. “The expansion of Yubico opening its third headquarters is more than just a new office; the company is committed to supporting the enterprises and public sector leaders who are defining the future of digital trust.”
In a fast-emerging era shaped by AI, autonomous agents and sophisticated cyberthreats are accelerating at an unprecedented scale. The need for securing AI with ‘human-in-the-loop’ has never been so urgent and is at the centre of establishing trust and preserving privacy. Yubico solutions offer organisations of all sizes the ability to leverage the power of AI securely, effectively using the YubiKey as the hardware root of trust to authorise AI delegations with a human touch. This office allows the company to scale its mission of keeping digital identities, both humans and agents, secure across the region.
