CLUSTER NFC-YUBIKEY-ANDROID · 4 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2013-09-03

YubiKey Android authenticator apps

This cluster consists of Android-focused security apps that pair with hardware YubiKey devices for authentication, including U2F/sudo logins, challenge-response over USB/NFC, XOR-protected static passwords, and OATH code generation. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from—only 3 dated entries exist before the index start, so the cluster either predates the index or its members are largely undated. Traction leaders, all with 0 stars, are yubix, Yubico Authenticator, and YubiClip XOR.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 4 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
