Here is a short summary of the main differentiators between U2F security keys and traditional smart card- and hardware-based authentication devices:
No need for drivers, client software and middleware – Uses native drivers and built-in support directly into the browser. No installation, no configuration – just works !Highly scalable while protecting your privacy - Generates a new set of encryption keys for every service, that is only stored on the specific service it connects to. With this approach no secrets are shared among service providers, and even low-cost security keys can support any number of services.Great user experience – To register and authenticate, all it takes is a simple touch of a button!
