All YubiKeys except the blue "security key" model are compatible with this guide. NEO models are limited to 2048-bit RSA keys. Compare YubiKeys [here](https://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey-hardware/compare-products-series/).
You will also need several small storage devices for booting a temporary operating system and creating backups of private/public keys.
# Verify YubiKey
To verify a YubiKey is genuine, open a [browser with U2F support](https://support.yubico.com/support/solutions/articles/15000009591-how-to-confirm-your-yubico-device-is-genuine-with-u2f) to [https://www.yubico.com/genuine/](https://www.yubico.com/genuine/). Insert a Yubico device, and select *Verify Device* to begin the process. Touch the YubiKey when prompted, and if asked, allow it to see the make and model of the device. If you see *Verification complete*, the device is authentic.

You will need several small storage devices for booting a temporary operating system and creating backups of your private/public keys.
It is recommended to generate cryptographic keys and configure YubiKey from a secure operating system and using an ephemeral environment ("live image"), such as [Debian](https://www.debian.org/CD/live/), [Tails](https://tails.boum.org/index.en.html), or [OpenBSD](https://www.openbsd.org/) booted from a USB drive.
Depending on your threat model and/or level of inherent trust in your own system. It is also a valid option to run the "live image" within a VM using something like Virtualbox or VMWare
To use Debian, download the latest image:

Shut down the computer and disconnect internal hard drives and all unnecessary peripheral devices. If being run within a VM this part can be skipped as no such devices should be attached to the VM since the image will still be run as a "live image"
