YubiKey 5 Nano FIPS
Yubico recommends a spare key
Why is a spare key so important?
It’s best practice to keep at least one spare YubiKey in case your primary is lost or stolen. Having a spare key gives you the assurance that you will not be without access to critical accounts when you need them most. No need to fear being locked out of any accounts, and no need to go through a lengthy recovery and identity verification process to recover them.
Please note that to register your spare key you will need to follow the same process as registering your primary key. Not all services support registering multiple YubiKeys. More information: yubico.com/spare.
